Reviews
We went here for the Swan markets. It's a nice building, and the markets were great fun. Public transport gets you close, or you can choose to pay for parking. The Swan markets were fun and there was a nice selection of foods. I did expect a bit more variety of stuff, but it was all nice and hand made. Very surprised by the stand that sold taxidermied insects and such. Beautiful stuff.
To begin with, it doesn't feel too fascinating, when you're associating it with UNESCO! However when you understand that this was built in 1925-31, in the beginning of industrial revolution, when all other buildings were built of bricks and primarily opaque - this, primarily made of glass & steel and primarily transparent - is an absolute shocker! This paved way for, set an inspiration for all the sky-scraper office buildings that you see today that are just glass & steel!
Visiting a restaurant in the grounds of van Nelle meant we were able to walk around viewing the different buildings, bumped into a guy who happened to work there who allowed us entrance to the main building showed us around. Interesting.
I smoked this for years, but did you change anything with the HALFZWARE recently? About three months ago, my fingers stink so badly of tobacco that I have to wash my hands for minutes after smoking. There is seriously something different. I looking for alternative now.
Unique place, venue for art Rotterdam.
