Dutch Slope or Hollanders slope is simply a sidewalk, yet it is frequently featured on postcards, is in almost all travel books and magazines, and seems to be on most tourist itineraries. Why? It is not only picturesque, it exudes a special aura of history. The slope itself is composed of irregular-sized stone slabs or bricks, lined by ivy-covered stone and concrete walls. From the starting point, you walk south, passing a number of attractive buildings. Locally it is also known as Oranda-zaka.
