Delfshaven

Delfshaven is a borough of Rotterdam on the right bank of river Nieuwe Maas, in South Holland, the Netherlands. It was a separate municipality until 1886. The town of Delfshaven grew around the port of the city of Delft.

We started walking from the port, mainly along the seafront. Others we met chose to take a water taxi to Devhaffen at the port, which sounded a great experience. We passed on Sunday and the area was quiet but it kept us away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Beautiful architecture, interesting windmills.

There are no special attractions, no celebrity homes, but it gives a sense of peace and tranquility, which is also a place that was not affected in World War II, so this tranquility is born. You can walk around at will, but you really have enough time to take a leisure trip.

Holland's beautiful past was originally hidden in the port of Delves in Rotterdam, but in modern cities it still retains such a seventeenth century style. Old church bells, squeaky suspension bridges, quietly moored boats, tuned communities, walk around and you'll find the little flavor of Rotterdam life.

Ride in a boat and enjoy the beautiful breeze on both sides of the river. Here shows the most simple Dutch style sunny side, but fortunately in its light make-up and thick wipe is always appropriate, gentle and slightly gloomy side is still loved.

Although the old port of Rotterdam, the Dutch port city, has suffered a lot of damage, it still has the old style of several hundred years ago. Most of Rotterdam's urban buildings were destroyed by artillery fire during World War II. In the bizarre and imaginative modern buildings rebuilt after World War II, the old port still presents historical precipitation. While enjoying the nearby three-dimensional square houses and other modern buildings, while looking back on the old customs, this is also why tourists like the old port.

For centuries, the old buildings are situated in the picturesque old port of Delfshaven, with ships docked on both sides of the river, like the scenery of the golden age of Dutch navigation. The old warehouses have now turned into shops, restaurants, bars and even museums on both sides of the street. The old customs that have been preserved have aroused people's nostalgia. At the entrance to the street, the statue of Dev Haven still stands in Pat Hain Square, the commander of the West India Company fleet who captured Spanish "Treasure" fleet. About 375 years ago, the Puritans sailed from here to the United States for religious purposes. The old building is now a century-old one. You might as well go to The Pelgrim, Rotterdam's only brewery in the city to sit down and sample some of its own brews. On rainy days, beer fragrance and old scenery are more suitable.
