Leidsegracht was the main route for barges between Amsterdam and Leiden, the city from which this canal takes its name. Leidsegracht marks the boundary between the first and second phase of the canal ring construction in 1658. The canal runs from Herengracht in the centre, through the Jordaan district to Singelgracht (not to be confused with Singel).
