Rotterdam: A Modern Metropolis

Rotterdam is the second-largest city in the Netherlands and the largest port city in Europe ⚓️✨. It is easily accessible, with a direct train from Amsterdam Central Station taking only about 40 minutes 🚃✨. The old town suffered devastating damage during World War II, but today it has transformed into a unique city filled with modern architecture, showcasing a variety of stunning buildings ✨. Whether during the day, at dusk, or at night, the city is beautiful at any time, and it has become one of my favorite places ✨. While the Netherlands often evokes a medieval European image, cities like Rotterdam offer a modern urban experience, providing diverse ways to enjoy the country 🌃.

City walk in Rotterdam. recommended for 2 days, however if you don't have enough time, 1 day would also be enough. The famous buildings are quite near each other in walking distance. it's a walkable city. Rotterdam also has it's own airport, called Rotterdam the Hague Airport. Hotels, I stayed in Ibis hotel in the city centre. It's about 3-4 mins walk from the #Old Port. You can have a very nice walk nearby. There are also lots of food options nearby. #Markthal is right in the square, there are all sorts of options, Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Burgers etc. If you love noodles, the #Takumi Rotterdam is a good option. #The Cube house is also next to the #markthal. You can also find the #Maritiem Museum Rotterdam not far from the old port. If you are filling adventurous, you can also walk about 30-40 mins to get to the seafront. Views are beautiful. You could walk almost the whole way next to the water. You can feel really relaxed. #travel #Relax.
