Photo Gallery of Amsterdam Bridges

With so much water in Amsterdam, it's no wonder there are more than 1,200 bridges in the greater city limits. My photo gallery of Amsterdam bridges offers a sampling of the many different kinds of bridges that criss-cross this floating city, from historic over-water footpaths to classic "humpbacked" canal varieties. By day and by night, Amsterdam's bridges are some of its most defining features -- not to mention its most picturesque.
