Rotterdam is the capital of modern architecture. A very unusual and diverse port city.
View from the window. Usually I leave the bike at the bike rack at night, but there wasn’t anything like that nearby, so I parked it at the pole along with someone’s fix.


Ideal weight for a messleif.

We are going to explore the city. Unregulated crossing and cycle path along the embankment.


Stationless Mobike rental with a ribbon. In Rotterdam, unlike Amsterdam, there is a city rental, and not even one.


Роттердам — смесь разных масштабов. Вот у тебя старые маленькие домики, а рядом с ними современные небоскребы.

Markthol is an excellent example of modern Dutch architecture from the Dutch bureau MVRDV. This is a residential building, inside which there is a covered market. Moreover, the windows of some apartments overlook directly into the market. Nearby there is a transfer hub with metro and tram, and in the lowland there is a public bicycle parking. You extend the rail, lower it, park the bike, raise it and slide it in. Some fasten, some don’t.




There is a trendy gastromarket inside, and the entire ceiling consists of a wild pattern with protruding windows of an apartment building.


Снаружи балконы.

Пересечение велодорожки с линией трамвая. Невероятной красоты опоры и мощение.

Pete Blom’s cubic houses turn out to be on supports above the road and it all looks creepy and monstrous.

Under the station there is a bicycle parking. You can get inside by a travolator.





The city is full of modern art objects and beautiful new buildings.


Another stylish tram platform.

Parklets with tables were made in the parking space near the cafe. A wonderful technique for making the city space a little cozier and more functional.





The main bridge of Rotterdam is Erasmus.



The skyscraper De Rotterdam by Rem Koolhaas is a delight that fits perfectly into the port atmosphere of the city.
