Rotterdam

The port city of Rotterdam is located in the Netherlands and is one of the most interesting places in the world. Its modern architecture plays a significant role in this. Among the impressive sights is the horseshoe-shaped Market Hall, with its vast array of goods and lively atmosphere. In the Old Harbor, with its striking white building, you can admire historic ships. The Witte de Withstraat shopping district is a great place to stroll, shop, and party. The futuristic-looking central station, known as “The Bag,” is also a great spot for bar-hopping and shopping.

Belgium

Antwerp

The heart of Flanders beats in Antwerp, the international center of the diamond trade. And when it comes to the finest chocolates and the vibrant cultural scene, it beats just a little faster.

It is surrounded by peaceful natural areas, such as the Hoge Veluwe National Park. There, you can hike and bike to your heart’s content.The city is known as a fashion hub. Large shopping centers and boutiques in the Modekwartier invite you to browse. The famous Burgers Zoo, the most beautiful zoo in the Netherlands, is a great destination for a day trip. Alternatively, you can visit one of the many museums: the Museum Arnhem features impressive modern art, while the Wijnmuseum is located in one of the oldest wine cellars in the Netherlands. The Open-Air Museum and the Dutch Water Museum are also worth a visit. A panoramic elevator in the Eusebius Church takes you 73 meters above the city.
