City: Rotterdam

Rotterdam is the architecture and innovation capital of the Netherlands, a city that reinvented itself from the ground up. After being almost completely destroyed in World War II, Rotterdam renounced nostalgic reconstruction and opted for a bold future, becoming a canvas for modern and avant-garde architecture. Its spectacular skyline, the largest port in Europe and a multicultural and pragmatic energy define it. From the iconic Cube Houses and the futuristic Markthal to its vibrant art and food scene, Rotterdam is a city that does not look to the past, but rather uses it as a foundation to build a bold and exciting future.

Tips for Adventure

Cross the Luchtsingel

Look for this 400-meter-long, crowdfunded, bright yellow wooden pedestrian bridge. It connects three previously disconnected northern neighborhoods and is a symbol of the city's civic spirit.

Discover Witte de Withstraat at night

It is the true heart of the local nightlife, much more than the tourist squares. It is full of trendy bars, art galleries, restaurants and a vibrant atmosphere.

Don't look for the 'old' center

The key to enjoying Rotterdam is to understand and embrace its history of destruction and rebirth. Its modernity is its identity.

tap water

It is of excellent quality and safe to drink.
