Things to Do in Oude Noorden, Rotterdam
Rotterdam's late-19th-century north-side quarter, built for workers just beyond the old city. Zwaanshals and Noordplein now mix design shops, bakeries, and markets, while the Rotte canal, Hofbogen railway viaduct, and surviving brick streets give the neighborhood a warmth and continuity rare in bomb-rebuilt Rotterdam.
