Maritime Museum

Rotterdam is the second largest city in the Netherlands and one of the largest port cities in the world. Rotterdam has a rich water network and a developed shipping industry, and you can see the scenery related to the city everywhere. Even the hotel bar has many ships moored by the river.

Rotterdam, Netherlands, is a port, and there is a maritime museum in the port city. There are many maritime-related items and introductions in the museum. More distinctive things, there are many large-scale equipment on display outside the museum, which is very interesting to say!

The development and navigation of the Dutch oceans are very early history, this maritime museum is a special introduction to the development of the Dutch oceans, this building has a history of more than 100 years, which contains a lot of early navigation maps and some important navigational history. Interesting visit.

This is a very important museum in Rotterdam. Its exhibits are very rich. It mainly exhibits the history of navigation in the Netherlands. Rotterdam, as a famous port city, has a history of navigation for thousands of years. Its cultural relics show the characteristics and changes of navigation in different periods, which is a very window to understand ancient Europe.

In the afternoon, I had to catch a plane to Stockholm. The visit to the Maritime Museum seemed a little rushed. I visited the cabin of a boat parked near the museum. After feeling the life of the seafarers when the Netherlands dominated the sea, I saw some objects in the museum in a hurry. The most interesting thing was an interaction: entering a room, closing the door and appearing pictures on all sides of the room. Tao himself was originally in a container. It was very interesting to see how containers were transported to sea, land, and supermarket by truck, and then delivered to shelves by supermarket clerks.

Follow the open-air harbour museum shore until the end, the Maritime Museum of Rotterdam. I like this museum very much. Not only does it introduce the history of maritime trade in Rotterdam as a port city, but the last part introduces the daily lives of some people living on the ship. You can get a map that hints at which boats are currently docked in the port of Rotterdam. But because it is a private house, the entrance to the visit must be allowed by the owner, not worth a special trip to see.

There is a large collection of naval history and navigation-related items, which is worth visiting. The original Royal Yacht Club was later changed. You can see old ship models, maps and some instruments. If you are interested in this, you can see them.
