On our two days in Amsterdam, we walked Prinsengracht from the Train Station to the Museum on both days and if would have done it the third day as well if we were there.

one of many wonderful canals, delightful to stroll along and enjoy the variety of cafes, bars and boutique shops, as well as the peaceful atmosphere

The fours canals including Prinsengracht are just as beautiful until I cannot really tell them apart. The canals defines Amsterdam and day time and night time have totally different views altogether.
