Rotterdam showcases a diverse collection of tourist attractions that reflect the city's transformation into a modern European metropolis. The rebuilt city center features contemporary architectural landmarks such as the Cube Houses, the Erasmus Bridge spanning the Nieuwe Maas river, and the Euromast observation tower rising 185 meters above the urban landscape. The Markthal, a covered market hall opened in 2014, combines commercial activity with residential space under a large horseshoe arch decorated with digital artwork. Museum Park houses several cultural institutions, including the Kunsthal exhibition building and the Boijmans Van Beuningen museum, which displays Dutch and European paintings from medieval times to the present day. The city's attractions extend beyond architecture and museums to include green spaces and specialized venues. Het Park, designed in 1852, provides 19 hectares of landscaped gardens along the riverbank, while Kralingse Plas offers a 100-hectare artificial lake surrounded by forest for outdoor recreation. Rotterdam Zoo, the largest animal park in the Netherlands, presents more than 180 species across themed habitats, including an oceanarium. The Maritime Museum documents the city's development as Europe's largest port through collections of ships, navigation instruments and port equipment. These attractions together present Rotterdam as a destination where historical maritime heritage meets contemporary urban development.
