Architecture 3 hours
Rebuilt after the Second World War, Rotterdam became the Netherlands' playground for modern architecture — from the Cube Houses to the Markthal and the Erasmus Bridge.
What to see
- The Cube Houses and the Markthal
- The Erasmus Bridge and the Kop van Zuid
- Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen
- A water taxi or a harbour cruise
Getting there
Fast trains connect Amsterdam and Rotterdam in about 40 minutes. In the city, use the metro, trams or water taxis.
Best time to visit
All year. Summer brings festivals and rooftop terraces; in winter the indoor attractions are just as good.
