The Amstel is a canalised river in southern North Holland, partly on the border of North Holland with South Holland and Utrecht. The area along the river is referred to as Amstelland. Amsterdam gets its name from the Amstel.
The Amstel originally began at the confluence of the Drecht and Kromme Mijdrecht rivers, just southwest of Uithoorn (which is also called Uithoorn aan de Amstel). With canalisation and construction of the Amstel-Drecht Canal in 1825, the section between Uithoorn and Ouderkerk aan de Amstel became part of this canal.
This canal starts at the Tolhuis lock at the confluence of the Drecht and the Aarkanaal, just northwest of Nieuwveen, and runs through Uithoorn to Ouderkerk aan de Amstel where the Bullewijk flows into it. From there to Amsterdam, the water is still officially called Amstel. The section from the Aarkanaal to the Bullewijk is 18.5 km long, from there to the mouth the water measures 12.5 km.
Apart from the Kromme Mijdrecht and the Bullewijk, the small river Waver flows into the Amstel, at the westernmost point of the polder the Ronde Hoep and located between Nessersluis and Nes aan de Amstel.

As a child, there was already a predilection for visual art. As a technician, I was always creative in products, services and working methods. In later years, more time was taken for my art (photography) passion.
