City in line with Dutch mentality

Advantages: There are many hidden nice places and great night life
Disadvantages: Modern and not really beautiful

Rotterdam was smashed during the World War II and unlike other big cities in Europe (Warsaw would be a good example), Dutch people decided not to restore city to the initial outlook. Instead, in typical Dutch manner, they decided to transform Rotterdam in playground of modern architecture. Frankly speaking, not always experimenting is good but after all, someone has to try, isn’t it?

Briefly about places where architects actually ...
...take a ride to the Rotterdam port – apart from the splendid view of Rotterdam skyline you could see world’s biggest port. Well, a small part of it eventually. But if you are up for something totally different, go for an industrial tour around the port – it is especially advisable if you want to get couple of all-but-different snapshots from Rotterdam instead of buying traditional postcards (by the way, such photos represent spirit of industrial center ... more

An underrated city

Advantages: Great shopping, sensational modern architecture, good public transport
Disadvantages: Climate sometimes,car parking difficult

I have been visiting Rotterdam for both short and extended periods for at least 15 years. It's an underrated city in my view, but you will either love or hate it. It's a vibrant, proud, and above all, a working city. Since it was virtually flattened in 1940 it has never stopped renewing itself - there is always building going on. There is sensational modern architecture all along Weena, near the Centraal Station, and all through the city. Look at ...
...houses (you can go inside these), and the Euromast. It's the world's biggest port, and the bridges are spectacular. You can take a boat tour on the Spido, so that you can rest your feet. Getting around is easy. There is a very efficient public transport system: bus, tram and metro. The metro lines have recently been extended and run N/S and E/W of the city. Stations are clean, safe, and covered with modern art. To get around you need a Strippenkaart, ...

Rotterdam - Avoid Mondays!!

Advantages: The Dutch beers!
Disadvantages: Closed on Mondays, the weather

I visited Rotterdam on a P and O minibreak last week. The P and O mini cruises are fantastic value for money because at this time of year (February) two people travel for the price of one. Having previously visited Amsterdam and Bruges with P and O we decided to try Rotterdam. We purposefully avoided travelling on a Sunday because we thought everything would be closed, how we wished we had researched in it properly before booking! In Rotterdam Sunday ...
...when planning our trip to Rotterdam the tourist websites were very difficult to use, both Bruges and Amsterdam's attractions have websites in a variety of languages but the majority of Rotterdam's were only in Dutch (fair enough I suppose as it is a Dutch speaking city but much more difficult to plan for tham if you were visiting Amsterdam or Bruges) We were disappointed with our trip to Rotterdam. I'm sure it is a great place to visit, there certainly ...

Rotterdam The Dutch Manhattan

Advantages: Something else
Disadvantages: The dutch climat

Rotterdam is the second city of Holland, with near to a million inhabitants it is a small town for american standards. Here in Holland however, it is known as a big city.Historical buildings, such as the merchants buildings at the canals in Amsterdam, are hard to find, due to large bombings from both side in the second world war. but, in effect, there is a lot of modern architecture and the view buildings that weren't bombed are carefully conserved. ...
...or is interested in architecture, Rotterdam is a must. Rotterdam has the largest harbor in the world, always competing with Antwerp, and it is definitely worth a tour. Because most tourists visit Amsterdam and the "keukenhof" and fly on to Paris, Rotterdam isn't crowded with tourists and the prices are agreeable. Also the stadium of the local football club, Feyenoord, is worth a visit. As city of the working class, with soccer as major sport, the ...

Duinrell Amusement Park - A Great Easter Treat

Advantages: Great place for all the family
Disadvantages: Not for people with phobia of frogs!

Duinrell is not just an amusement park but a campsite as well. My experience of this place is from working on the campsite for a camping holiday company. It is ideally situated about 30 minutes drive north of The Hague in the Netherlands almost equally distant from the ferry port at Rotterdam to the airport at Amsterdam. This place is fantastic. The campsite is huge with not just camp areas but quite a few different companies on there (the three major ones). There is a large shop/bar/restaurant complex called the Kikkertuin (frog garden). The onsite shop has a wide range of goods from fresh bread to tent pegs all at reasonable prices. The bar which is an Irish bar in the cellar is not too badly priced and quite a large size but I did not visit either of the 2 restaurants. The great part of the campsite is that you get ...

Review of Duinrell Amusement Park

See Holland in a Day!!

Advantages: small, good public transport
Disadvantages: not that many attractions

Thinking about visiting The Hague? Well, let me tell you a little bit about this fair city. Having lived in Den Haag (as the locals call it) for about 4 months, this is what I discovered. Right let's get the specifics out of the way first The Hague is the third biggest city in The Netherlands (after Amsterdam and Rotterdam). It's conveniently located in between the two larger cities, which makes it an ideal place to begin your Dutch adventure. The Hague has a population of about half a million people, so it?s not a big city by world standards. In fact, as well as having a small population it?s also quite small in area. The weather Dutch weather is very similar to English weather, except it rains more! A book I have on Holland cheerfully informs me that the rainfall in Holland "averages out at less than 90 minutes a day ...

Review of The Hague (Netherlands)

A carnivore feast from the Pampas

Advantages: Good food, good service
Disadvantages: Good but not outstanding

INTRODUCTION Here's one for you hardcore meat eaters. In the mood for a steak, I found myself on Breda's main square and considering going to Gauchos. This is a popular steak restaurant on the main square and I thought it was about time that I treated them to a review. I am not sure if my reputation precedes me, but I note a definite improvement in service, attitude and food quality the more I review. Or perhaps I had been unlucky or unkind? Nah! I'm sure I'll experience the normal Dutch service one more time before I leave. In any case, here is my review of Gauchos. THE RESTAURANT Gauchos is a chain of Argentinean restaurants in the Netherlands, with branches in Amsterdam (5 branches), Breda, The Hague, Eindhoven, Maastricht, Rotterdam (3 branches) and Utrecht. Apparently they are in the UK as well. When we ...
