Het mooiste van alles is Amsterdam is a mostly unknown Dutch folk song from the early 20th century. In the video you will be able to see some old images and paintings to represent Amsterdam throughout it's history. Allthough Amsterdam is the biggest city of the Netherlands and one of it's capitals, it is not the oldest. People have been living in the reagion for over 4000 years, but people started living sedentairy in the exact spot around the year 1000. The region where Amsterdam was settled, was named the "Aemestelle". Aemestelle was known for it's vast swamplands, wich were first drained before the sellement was created. The first settlers named their new town "Amstel" referring to the Aemestelle region and the river that went through it wich was also called Amstel. Later when Amstel had to be protected from frequent floods, multiple dams were added to secure the town from the sea, hence the "dam" part in the name "Amsterdam", or the "dam around Amstel".

Nice discovery!
Could you post more of those Flemish or Brabant folk songs such as 'T is Vlaams 't treekt op geen kloten? They're really lovely and entertaining for learning the Dutch language, specifically in its Flemish variety as I do! 😊
Sure! I'll see what I can find. It's kinda hard to find these songs though since I usually just stumble upon them by accident.
Geweldig liedje
Niet zo waar in deze tijden denk ik
Watching this after yesterdays riots by leftists…
