Rotterdam, trams, canals, museums, Netherlands

Starting out at the Rotterdam train station, which is where you would probably be arriving when you come to Rotterdam, in the Netherlands. There’s an excellent Tourist Information counter here where you can get a lot of good advice about the main sites you want to see in your visit. The tram station out front is quite active with eight different tramlines running through it. You’ll quickly reach anywhere in town from the central station. There are very modern buildings in Rotterdam, and they are well planned with apartments in the downtown area and some parks and you’ve got the idyllic waterfront with the boat traffic and the apartments around it. There is a culture history museum. There’s an excellent art museum. And that’s where we are heading soon in the program, show you a couple of fine museums. First we walk along Westersingel canal, with parks along the banks of the canal, you’ve got some ducks quacking by and also it’s an outdoor sculpture garden with fountains and benches and a wide promenade that
