Dating back to 1350, Rotterdam’s Old Harbor (Oude Haven) was the city’s first port and now stands as one of its trendiest corners. Situated along the north bank of the Meuse River, this vibrant area blends historical charm with modern architecture, including Piet Blom’s iconic Cube Houses. Visitors can stroll along the waterfront, taking in the mix of old and new, and enjoy some of the best dining and nightlife the city has to offer.
