The immediate tourist attraction would be the famous cubed houses of the city.

The city, once a historical place of Europe, now is an industrial and modern paradise with new buildings on every corner, up to date technology with brightly lit street signs and a faster pace than a New York Minute.

Your parents always taught you to look both ways before crossing the street, but take it seriously in Rotterdam because the bikers will run you over without even a blink of regret.

All the buzzing and noise you hear is not bees, but it is coming from a hive.

Rotterdam’s mall/shopping center is called “The Hive” because of all the windows, making it resemble a bee’s nest.

It gets so busy, and hence the nickname.

With the modernism and will to create anything, Rotterdam has become the go-to city when it comes to expressing art.

Taggers have their murals all over the city on any and every wall they could find that have somewhat of a free space.

There is a small patch of nature in such a concrete city, and that park holds the famous Euromast.

The tower, as expected, is a high-class area at the top with a five-star restaurant.

Anyone can eat there, bearing they can afford it, and afford the view of the city.

To get there, one must find the path through the park, crossing the Ninja Warrior trail of a moving bridge over a creek, small paths and sand crossings.
