Feijenoord
Rumor has it, it takes a full day trip on a boat, to only partly discover all there is to experience in the port of Rotterdam.

Rumor 2: in order to make the port more attractive, cranes have been designed to appear more cheerful and humanoid.

Charlois

Discover Charlois, memorable for its restaurants. Popular attractions in Charlois include Ahoy Rotterdam and Zuidplein Shopping Centre, and you can see more of the area by hopping on the metro at Rotterdam, Maashaven.
