Beautiful branches of the rivers through beautiful places of the city center. By raising the city and expanding the city, many arches and bridges came over the waters. The special feature of the Binnendieze is that this canal also goes underground under buildings, so the canal runs through the entire city center. An example of a building under which the Binnendieze passes is the City Hall. The nice thing about this is that there is a hatch in the City Hall to the Binnendieze, a bridal couple can then directly board the wedding boat from the City Hall.
