Rotterdam, The Netherlands Cruise Port

Despite a history dating back to the 900s, Rotterdam looks like a completely modern city. That is because it suffered major destruction during World War II and after the war decided to start over, building a modern skyline. Rotterdam is also the largest port in not just The Netherlands, but all of Europe. This has made it the economic center of The Netherlands and a popular cruise destination for Northern European itineraries. Despite its modern look, Rotterdam still has a lot of culture to offer.
