10 days in Rotterdam Itinerary

Located in the South Holland province, Rotterdam is one of the Netherlands' most lively cities, as well as one of the largest trading ports in the world.

You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at Kunsthal Rotterdam and National Military Museum. Get a sense of the local culture at Huis Van Gijn and Huis Sonneveld. Get out of town with these interesting Rotterdam side-trips: Utrecht (Railway Museum (Het Spoorwegmuseum) & Kruideniers Museum), Leiden (Museum De Lakenhal, Molenmuseum de Valk, &more) and Basiliek H.H. Agatha en Barbara (in Oudenbosch). There's much more to do: admire the masterpieces at Wereldmuseum, see the interesting displays at Dutch Pinball Museum, take a leisurely stroll along Old Harbour, and pause for some serene contemplation at Grote of Sint-Laurenskerk.
