Trendy, cosmopolitan and bustling with activity

The Kop van Zuid is increasingly becoming the lively heart of the city of Rotterdam. Take a stroll around the Rijnhaven over the new bridge and discover all the shops, art, culture, restaurants and pavement cafés by the water. Hotel New York, the Netherlands Photo Museum, the Lantaren/Venster cinema, the new Luxor Theater, the exhibition area of the floating pavilion, the new urban park...  all within walking distance. Feel like visiting the Koopgoot, Zuidplein shopping centre, De Kuip or the market? You can leave your car at home, because they are only a few minutes away by bus, metro, tram or water taxi.

Looking for a place of quiet reflection after a busy day, experience the oasis of tranquillity in the unique Chinese garden (2,000 m²) at the European China Centre with a pond and Asian trees and plants.
