Amsterdam canal houses

The Old Lutheran Church at the Singel in Amsterdam dating from 1633. With renovations of the canal side here all the trees have been removed and you have now an unusual view at all the houses.

Some houses are leaning aside.

Others have beautiful decorations on top.

This one suffers some serious prolapse.

They are all very old like this one from 1652.

  2. There's nothing worse than suffering a prolapse Marianne, especially buildings 😃 They are very beautiful, really in amazing condition seeing as they are so old.

  3. I enjoy seeing your tilting saggy buildings. They would be condemned here in California.

  4. That next to last one reminded me of a house I used to live in. The floors were so uneven I had to lock the wheels on my desk chair just so I wouldn't roll across the room. :-)
