Ontdek het onontdekte in Rotterdam

Rotterdam verveelt nooit. Volg de voetsporen van de locals en ontdek te stad zoals ze écht is. Check hun tips, maar volg vooral je eigen pad.

Ontdek Rotterdam als een local

Bezoek de Rotterdamse Oogstmarkt voor lokale lekkernijen, een heerlijke en duurzame boerenmarkt op het Noordplein. Kijk in de 1664 spiegels van het Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen, het allereerste openbare kunstdepot ter wereld. Neem een watertaxi naar de Marconistraat: de havenindustrie is hier nog voelbaar, naast het nieuwe Makers District M4H, waar veel creatieven (Studio Roosegaarde, Atelier Van Lieshout) zijn gehuisvest. Huur een fiets om de omgeving te verkennen, neem een kijkje bij de Floating Farm waar futuristische landbouw plaatsvindt. Bezoek daarna het nabijgelegen Weelde, een creatieve vrijstaat waar je kunt stoppen voor een drankje en een hapje. Het mooiste park is Het Park bij de Euromast, waar weelderig groen en iconische architectuur elkaar ontmoeten pal naast het stadscentrum. Vergeet tijdens je bezoek aan Het Park niet even te stoppen bij de verborgen historische tuinen van Schoonoord. Meer lokale tips? Kijk op www.dorotterdam.com.

After graduating from the Rotterdam Art Academy, Van Lieshout quickly became familiar with projects that traveled between the world of simple clean design and the non-functional realm of art: sculpture and installations, buildings and furniture, utopias and dystopias 🖼️🗿 📷 @willemdekam_ #dorotterdam #differentkindoftourist #dorist #rotterdammakeithappen

But North, East, South, or West… West has the very best; at the small @rootgallery , great ambitions are expressed in contemporary art, and the established @franktaalgallery has an impressive portfolio of national and international artists."

Architecture Tuesday 💗🏢 Every week we take a look at an architectural highlight in the city. Today we highlight: The White House The White House (Het Witte Huis) is a building and National Heritage Site built in 1898 in the Art Nouveau style. The White House was the very first skyscraper in Europe and one of the few buildings in the center of town that survived the bombing raid on May 14, 1940 during World War II. When we look at the buildings of today it's hard to imagine that this was once the tallest building 🤍🏠 📷 @oilllllllllly #dorotterdam #differentkindoftourist #dorist #rotterdammakeithappen

Looking for experimental sustainable buildings in Rotterdam? Our local Brenda knows them all! 🌍🏢 'Rotterdam's first wooden building, Sawa, is an excellent example of experimental sustainable building. Unlike concrete, which involves massive CO2 emissions, wooden structures are known to store CO2. The Fenix 1 building can also be seen as sustainable, because new homes have been built on top of an existing listed warehouse.' Check out our #linkinbio for more architectural favourites 💗🏠
