The lens covers a giant cargo terminal with harbor cranes, windmills, barges and bulk carriers. Thanks to real-time broadcasting, everyone can watch the weather and countless ships arriving in the city and departing from the port. Rotterdam is an ancient city, where a huge number of historical, cultural and architectural sights have been preserved.
In addition to its Museums and historical buildings, Rotterdam, whose webcams can be viewed online on this site, is also famous for its unique examples of modern architecture.
One such object is the cubic houses, which were designed as a multi-unit residential complex. Each such cube has a slope of 45 degrees and is placed on one of the edges. At the same time, living in such unusual housing does not cause any discomfort. Anyone can verify this by looking at a demo version of such a cube without external walls.
The most popular place for leisure activities and various kinds of meetings is the Market Hall complex. It is a high arch made of glass and concrete, covered with drawings of products that can be purchased in this building. Along with the food market, all kinds of catering establishments operate within the walls of the complex, where you can taste local and most exotic cuisine.
The central station also has a unique design. It was built in 2014 in an unusual futuristic style. The terminal building looks like a huge triangular arrow pointing up. A large clock is attached to the glass facade. And at the entrance there are large letters indicating not what kind of building stands in front of the beholder. It is noteworthy that these letters were transferred from the old station, as a sign of respect for history.
Euromast is one of the most famous sights of the city. It was built in the last century. Today, there are two panoramic restaurants with amazing views of the city. Those who wish also have the opportunity to book a suite for the night, visit an excursion or go down from the top on a rope or trolley.
The colorful village of Kinderdijk has a completely opposite appearance. It is located along the banks of the Nord River, a couple of tens of kilometers from Rotterdam. The main decoration of this settlement are ancient windmills. They were built in the 18th century and miraculously survived to this day and are included in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
