About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

We docked in Rotterdam during our P&O Iona Cruise. This was the second time that we had visited Rotterdam and we took the oppoturnity to explore the city. We visited the SS Rotterdam which is only a short 20 minute walk from the cruise terminal! We hope this VLOG helps you make the most of your visit to this beautiful destination. This video has been remixed from the following - https://youtu.be/R7-2HT21G3A Rotterdam is a vibrant, modern city in the Netherlands known for its innovative architecture, bustling port, and dynamic cultural scene. As Europeโ€™s largest port, it plays a significant role in global trade and maritime commerce, earning it the nickname "Gateway to Europe." The city is characterized by its bold, futuristic skyline, which is a striking contrast to the more traditional Dutch cities. This distinctive architecture arose after much of Rotterdam was destroyed during World War II, giving way to creative urban renewal and cutting-edge design. Landmarks like the iconic Erasmus Bridge, the Cube Houses, and the Markthal showcase the cityโ€™s commitment to architectural innovation.
