Anyone who has been to Rotterdam before can get off the beaten track. How? By walking through the Entrepothaven to the Afrikaanderwijk!
If you’re looking for a neighbourhood that’s still relatively undiscovered but interesting, this is the place to be. Out of sight, out of mind – but that certainly isn’t the case with the Entrepothaven. The neighbourhood may have fewer major attractions than others, but it’s precisely these hidden gems that make a stroll there well worth your while. The Afrikaanderwijk has long been known for its harbour and migrant worker community. You can see this reflected at the Afrikaandermarkt on Wednesdays and Saturdays. These days, the descendants of these migrant workers are bringing a vibrant spirit of enterprise to the neighbourhood.
