Day 15 - Rotterdam Leftovers

Did I mention that Rotterdam is an architecturally stunning city? Coming from one of those myself, I'm quite amazed at the variety and inventiveness of the contemporary architecture on hand here. The city was destroyed two-fold during World War II. Once when the Germans invaded and then again when the Allies took it on their quest to wipe out the Nazis. This left the city pretty much in ruins and in need of a facelift, much like Warsaw and Berlin...

While I don't know the title of any of these, that shouldn't take away from their ability to inspire awe!
