Blijdorp, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 1938 apartment on Statenweg sits in a quiet corner of Blijdorp, where neighbours still greet each other on the street.

Auto-translated to English by AIit's a nice neighbourhood, right next to Vroesepark! In my opinion, there's not much to do for young people, for that you have to go to the city centre.
