Sight-Seeing
Rotterdam is a huge city, but all of these listed sights you must see, are located in the center near the main train station! It is very easy to navigate through!
Amazing food range! Besides the fact that this building i such an unique architectural masterpiece, the churros and donuts here are AMAZING. I still think about them till this day. It can get very crowded and it actually goes a few levels below the g...
Markthal
Very cool architecture! Had a blast exploring these weirdly shaped houses. We got the chance to visit this place when there was no crowds. Truly a unique experience! Must visit if you ever come to Rotterdam!
Kijk-Kubus
After having lots of food in Markthal we strolled along the riverside and enjoyed the panoramic view of city's other side. The Erasmusbrug is remarkable and add a playful shape to Rotterdam's skyline. if you ever get the chance, try out the boat tour...
Erasmusbrug
This gives off pure New York Central park vibes but maybe even better! There is so much greenery here I can only imagine how nice it is here in the summertime. Beautiful and calming.
Museumpark
As an architect i had to visit this modern architectural masterpiece. This specific piece is so cool with its mirrors and structure.
Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen
Restaurants
IF you want to try food in other parts of Rotterdam besides Markthal - I got you! Rotterdam is LOADED with all different cuisines so you are welcome to explore on your own too! Here are my personal favs.
Can get quiet busy and the portions might be a bit smaller, but the food is delicious! We tried their breakfast burrito and pancakes with smores and melted chocolate and everything was amazing! Although the restaurant was full we didn't have to wait ...

Savor & Nosh
This restaurant can be found in many other cities as its very popular in the Netherlands! Poke bowls are one of my favorite lunch options because it's easy, affordable, quick and healthy!
Hawaii Poké Bowl
Heard great things about this restaurant from are local friend that studies in Rotterdam. Unfortunately we didn't have time to eat here. What we could see from passing by is that the place was pretty full and popular & the food looked REALLY good...

Drinks
Rotterdam is the city of coffees and matchas & we had great time trying out and exploring all different coffee spots!
Tried my first matcha ever here and loved it! It might be pricy but it's really good and totally worth it! We had them to go so we could continue to explore the city but their interior was super adorable too!
Matcha Next Door
This lovely cafe was so cute and adorable, but we unfortunately didn't have the time to have a seat. We saved it for the next time we come to Rotterdam!
Kuub Coffee
Cute underrated place that i haven't seen anyone talk about. It has also great brunch options but we weren't really hungry. My friend got a coffee to go here and said that the staff was super nice. Definitely saved this place for our next time in Rot...
