Look Up for a New Perspective
Rotterdam is known for its majestic port, extraordinary architecture and impressive skyline. Its reconstruction after the bombing of 1940 resulted in a patchwork of innovative architectural styles, and it’s not surprising that the Netherlands’ largest architecture festival is organised in Rotterdam. This year, Rotterdam Architecture Month (1 to 30 June) is based at Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Museum Park and explores the past, present and future of gardens in the city. With over 125 activities including the Day and Night of Architecture and the International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam, June has something for everyone, regardless of your knowledge of architecture.
