Learn about wonders of technical thought that makes an ordinary roof into a lovely garden with fruits, vegetables and even beehives.City hall (Stadhuis) is one of the few places surviving the 1940 destruction. It is a marvellous piece of architecture, not typical for Rotterdam, that creates a sharp contrast with the rest of the city. Through discussing the architecture and its history we will get a deeper understanding of Rotterdam’s history.Grote of Sint-Laurenskerk is the oldest remaining building in Rotterdam with its roots going back to the end of the 14th century. This church has seen it all, from Erasmus Rotterdam to Eurovision and is ready to share even more information once we get there!Markthal is one of the most famous pearls in Rotterdam futuristic building collections. Both market and an a residential complex in one opens door to International cuisine and the biggest visual artwork in the world glancing at its visitors from the ceiling.New York has Statue of Liberty. Paris has Eiffel Tower. Rotterdam has Cubic Houses. Weirdly shaped and bizarrely coloured it can not help itself but attract people. Why are those houses cubic? Are there people actually living inside? We will talk about all of it and more.Old Harbour is in our humble opinion the most picturesque sight in Rotterdam. With colossal bridges looming in the background and old harbour with its cozy bars and barges at the front- it is hard to skip this place.
