The port city of Rotterdam offers a hip vibe, where art and off-the-wall architecture dominate. Buzzy bars and restaurants are yours to discover, while daytime reveals museums and galleries to capture every angle of your imagination.

The international cuisine scene
Ever eaten a tulip? You can at De Jong, in the De Hofbogen district. Continue the experimental eating at nearby FG Food Labs; the chef, François Geurds, was a sous chef under Heston Blumenthal. For local treats, the Markthal is the continent's largest fresh produce market, and you can also attend cooking classes and enjoy numerous restaurants on-site. For excellent North African and Middle Eastern eats in a buzzy setting, head to Bazar restaurant, in the city centre.
Modern and medieval treasures at galleries aplenty
The timeless Museum van Boijmans Beuningen is home to works from Rembrandt, Van Gogh, Monet, and numerous other European masters. For special exhibitions featuring both established and emerging artists, head to the Nederlands Fotomuseum or the Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art. For a change of pace, head to the Maritime Museum to learn all about Dutch history on the water.
Rotterdam's rocking entertainment scene
Night owls can paint the town red at the hip clubs in the Shieblock or Witte de Withstraat. For a more sedate option, take a dinner cruise on a party boat or enjoy a pint at the beer garden, appropriately called Biergarten, on a sunny day or sultry evening.
Culture buffs are in for even more of a treat, with a variety of musicals, cabaret, and opera on offer at Hofplein Theatre, Zuidplein Theatre, Theatre Rotterdam, and de Doelen. For those looking to try their luck at the casino, head to elegant Holland Casino or Corso Casino.
