Moving house in Amsterdam: Tugboats pull two-storey houseboat along canal


This was the moment somebody in Amsterdam decided to move house with the aid of two tugboats on July 17.

The floating building was seen being pulled by one boat from ahead and pushed by another from the rear close to Reguliersbreestraat.

The filmer explained: "We can see a two-storey boathouse being tugged through the Amsterdam canals.

"In particular, the Kostverlorenvaart river is used for transporting cargo and large buildings through Amsterdam."
