Rotterdam
Presentation
Rotterdam
Rotterdam is famous for its architecture in the Netherlands and abroad. The city centre, just a few square kilometres in total, boasts over 100 years of modern architecture that you can discover on foot or by bike. The fully decorated Kijk-kubus Museum House shows what the famous Cube Houses look like from the inside. You may also enjoy taking a peek inside Huis Sonneveld, one of the best-preserved examples of the New Movement.

Amsterdam
What makes Amsterdam so popular? Is it the canals and bridges, the city’s rich history, the cultural offerings, the congenial neighbourhoods with cafés and antique shops or the municipal parks that are enough to confound the senses? Or is it the liberal character of the city, where it doesn’t matter what your skin colour, religion or sexual orientation are. It’s the combination that makes Amsterdam so unique. Do as the Dutch all do: hop on a bike and experience Amsterdam!
