E pitoresc şi viu, colorat şi muzical.

‘The Jordaan is the heart and soul of the real Amsterdam epitomized in schmaltzy oompah ballads, where life happens on the streets or in the corner pub (rather than in overcrowded houses) and where common folk still share their experiences;where houses are tiny but tidy, with lace curtains and flowers in window boxes, and where living, working, shopping, schooling and entertainment are integrated in one neighborhood.’
‘…originally the quarter for the petit bourgeoisie, Jordaan is a district full of character and atmosphere.Many splendid gabled houses are still in existence here.Look carefully for the sun terraces and the roofs where pigeons congregate.There is also a small part of the red light district to be seen here.’
