Houseboats



There are boats and house boats lining all of the canals. On the narrower ones you only see small boats but on the wider ones you can have house boats, sometimes on both sides of the canal.



Some have smaller boats tied to them and people who live in these house boats use the smaller boats to get around the city.

House boats are very expensive – they may start at 500 euros and then you have to pay to the property which is leased to you by the government. Pretty expensive cost per square foot price!
