[2024 Rotterdam Attraction] Travel Guide for Cube Houses (Updated Oct)

Beautiful Places You Could Take Pictures in Rotterdam

#familytrips2024 #vianasjourney #awesomepic I love photography and visiting places so much. A holiday or simply a day out did not feel complete without it. So, if you share the same passion as mine, do consider these places to visit while you are in Rotterdam. 1) World Trade Center; The Sculpture immediately caught my eyes. Although I have seen plenty of sculpture before but this bronze sculpture of Gijsbert Karel Van Hogendorp is just special. He played a leading role in drawing up the New Constitution. Infront of this building, there’s a long shopping complex. 2) Stadhuis Rotterdam/ Townhall Rotterdam; This place have a beautiful garden but when I visited on the weekend, they were close. So if the garden that you are aiming for, come during weekdays. Despite that, the architecture itself quite interesting. Plenty of sculpture were attached outside of the building for you to capture. 3) Market Hall; Selling plenty of food, drinks & other items. The unique thing about this place is, the beautiful arts on it’s ceiling. 4) Cube Houses; Definitely not to miss in Rotterdam. Entrance fee is not required. It just a bit crowded that it’s a challenge to take picture without anyone in your frame. I hope you enjoy Rotterdam as much as I do. Enjoy! ps; all this location are just nearby each other.

Cute Little Cube House In The Center of Rotterdam

#familytrips2024 #vianasjourney #couplestrip While in Rotterdam, be sure not to miss this cute yet unique little cube house. It’s located basically in the center of the city and super easy to get here especially if you stop at Rotterdam Blaak Station. There’s no fee required to view the whole area but if you wanna enter the museum you could pay as low as 3€ at the entry point (by card or cash) or you may also purchase ticket on their official site. It’s basically showing you a typical setup of cube house looks like and a little bit of the background. Love how creative ones mind can be :)

The World Slowly Wanders｜The Mad City of Rotterdam Plays with Architecture

A rare member of modern architecture in Europe~🤩 I call it the Mad City!! So ahead of its time. It is also the 'Gateway to Europe'. This time I finally reserved time to check it out. I dare say architecture enthusiasts will definitely love Rotterdam. The whole city feels very modern and magical. This port city has gone crazy with architectural design!!! When you come to Amsterdam, I suggest you leave a day to visit here✅ 🚄Transportation: Both Amsterdam and Rotterdam have several train stations. Use Google Maps to navigate to your destination and follow the route. The journey takes about 1 hour. Buy train tickets from NS and bus tickets from FlixBus. ☑️Five main check-in points in Rotterdam 🔹Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen 🔹Pencil Tower 🔹Cube Houses 🔹Markthal 🔹Witte de Withstraat I personally think the St. Lawrence Church is average. The ticket is 4€, you can skip it. If you are short on time, spend half a day each in Rotterdam and The Hague. The journey between the two is 30 minutes. Or, like me, you can slowly wander around Rotterdam for a day, which is also very enjoyable. FiveFiveFive Cafe is a random pick from Google, a gathering place for cyclists. Pho Hanoi is a cost-effective Vietnamese restaurant with decent taste. Tips: I suggest getting off at Blaak station by train. The main check-in points are right outside. - I am Zoey, wandering the world with you🧳
