Things to do in Rotterdam

Rotterdam is a port city on the river Maas, in the south-west of the Netherlands. Bombing destroyed its centre in May 1940, and the rebuilt city is known for its bold modern architecture. Places to visit in Rotterdam include:

  • Maritime Museum Rotterdam: exhibitions that tell the story of the Dutch seafaring past, including the years when the Netherlands was a colonial power
  • Markthal: the arched market hall designed by the architecture firm MVRDV, with food stalls under a vast painted ceiling
  • Cube Houses: Piet Blom's tilted yellow homes beside the Markthal
  • Erasmus Bridge: the white cable-stayed bridge nicknamed 'the Swan', which you can walk across from the centre to the Kop van Zuid district for views along the Maas
  • Lijnbaan: one of the first purpose-built pedestrian shopping streets in Europe
  • Kruiskade: an upmarket shopping street in the city centre

For an evening out in Rotterdam, bars and café terraces cluster around the Oude Haven, the old harbour beside the Cube Houses.
