NL-2781162 Aan de Amsterdamse grachten

"Aan de Amsterdamse grachten" ("At the Amsterdam canals") is a Dutch song by Pieter Goemans. It was first recorded in1956. It is one of the standard songs celebrating the city of Amsterdam and one of the best-known and most popular songs in the Netherlands.

This postcard showing a canal of Amsterdam somehow conveys the mood of the song to me.  It was sent by Wendy (20 January 2015) Postcrossing.
