If you enjoy exploring the wonders of modern architecture, you’ll feel right at home in Rotterdam. This city in the Netherlands is home to many pretty impressive modern buildings that you have to see at least once in a lifetime.
Cube Houses
The Cube Houses, built by the renowned architect Piet Blom, are Rotterdam’s most important landmark and their quirky shape was envisioned this way to optimize the space inside.
Erasmusbrug
The second-largest bridge in all of the Netherlands has been around since 1996, and it’s one of Rotterdam’s main landmarks. It’s commonly known by the nickname “The Swan” due to its striking white color and interesting shape.
Rotterdam Central Station
If you enjoy trains, make sure to take a journey from or to Rotterdam’s main railway station. The futuristic new building opened its doors in 2014, and its shape is reminiscent of a boomerang.
Market Hall
Market Hall also opened its doors on its current location in 2014 and quickly became one of Rotterdam’s most photographed attractions. What makes it so unique is its horseshoe shape, glass windows, and grey natural stone it was built from.
