Amsterdam

Received from: the Netherlands
Category: Postcrossing - official card
Date: April 2014
Distance: 1000 km
Time of travelling: 5 days

Use of the Skinny Bridge has been limited to pedestrians and cyclists since 2003. It is however opened many times a day in order to let through river traffic. The boats used for sightseeing tours are low enough to pass underneath the bridge when closed. The bridge is decorated with 1200 light bulbs that are turned on in the evening.
