About Rotterdam

Rotterdam is the second largest city in the Netherlands and home to one of the largest and busiest ports in Europe, located on the Nieuwe Maas in the southwestern part of the country. Its name comes from a dam built on the Rotte River in the 13th century. Much of the city was destroyed during the Second World War, and its reconstruction led to bold modern architecture and innovative urban planning that make it a showcase of contemporary design. Visitors come to see the iconic Cube Houses, the striking Erasmus Bridge, and the colorful Markthal, a covered market with apartments above it. Rotterdam is also a major logistics and economic center, with world-class museums, a lively food scene, and dynamic nightlife, making it one of the most exciting cities in the Netherlands.
