Rotterdam is thoroughly modern—you’ll soon understand why it’s sometimes called “Manhattan on the Meuse”: The Maas Tower, the Montevideo, the Millennium Tower, and the spectacular Erasmus Bridge make for a dazzling skyline. Today, use it as a jumping point for the nearby city of Delft, where the Netherland’s traditional blue-and-white pottery is crafted by master artisans, and the colorful windmills of Kinderdijk.
