Today we wandered through the oldest remaining part of my hometown of Rotterdam. It's called Delfshaven (literally it means
Port of Delft) and it has the typically Dutch Canal Houses. Not very typical for Rotterdam by the way, as large parts of the city, especially near the center, were bombed during the second World War. Luckily Delfshaven escaped the air raids.
This is the
Pilgrim Father's Church, also located in Delfshaven. We had some yummy coffee and Apple Pie in a brewery-cafe nearby. Perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon. :)
Oh, how I dream of traveling to such lovely little places...
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed visiting your town when my husband and I lived in Maastricht for 5 months. It's unfortunate that war bombing took its toll on your city, but I still enjoyed my visit, especially the museums and the port tour. Kathie L in Allentown
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful. So completely different to here too. :-)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Nicole. I'd like to spend more time in Rotterdam, we always seem to pass through it.
ReplyDeleteThat church is gorgeous!
Rotterdam is so beautiful! I didn't make it further north than Paris in last year but I would have loved to see the Netherlands. Thank you for sharing your pictures!
