Rotterdam

Netherlands
4.4 / 14
Rotterdam is often referred to as the "center of global distribution" because of its huge port, where cargo tankers with a variety of goods from all over the world dock. The city began to fulfill this function by the 17th century. Despite its rather solid age, Rotterdam is a progressive city, where unusual architectural projects are welcomed and new technologies rule the ball. Some tourists believe that Rotterdam is an example of urban architecture of the future. The rest of Europe will reach this level in fifty years. Indeed, unusual cubic houses or a bizarre combination of traditional urban planning with unusual solutions in the interior of the Church of St. Lawrence can both delight and puzzle.
