Rotterdam Food Plaza

As soon as you exit Rotterdam Station, you'll see the tall arch-shaped building on your right—the Rotterdam Food Plaza. Inside, there's a highly recommended cheese shop with great quality and delicious cheese, and the owner is particularly interesting. The seafood pasta and risotto are also highly recommended, fresh and tasty. On the left side, you'll find the unique Pencil House and Cube House buildings, which house offices and hotels. This time, I was lucky enough to stay in the Cube House. Although the walls are slanted, it's actually quite nice and very special. Behind the station, there's a large square that hosts a weekend market and flea market, making it very lively. I'm sure many of you have seen Jackie Chan's movie 'Who Am I.' There's a fight scene filmed in the square between the Cube Houses. Watching it as a kid didn't leave much of an impression, but seeing it in person was quite impactful. Watching the movie again after visiting gave me a deeper understanding.
