De architectuur in Rotterdam is zeker een van de aspecten die onze stad zo uniek maken. Het bombardement in 1940 vernietigde grote delen van het centrum. Hoewel dit natuurlijk verschrikkelijk was, gingen Rotterdammers onmiddellijk aan het werk en werd de stad herbouwd. Tijdens deze wederopbouw hebben grote architecten met verschillende stijlen geholpen. Nu heeft Rotterdam diverse moderne gebouwen die het bezoek waard zijn. Daarom moet een bezoek aan Rotterdam zeker een unieke architectuur omvatten. Met deze architectuurroute in Rotterdam kun je een groot aantal van de beste meesterwerken in de stad verkennen. Wij raden het aan een fiets te gebruiken voor deze route, aangezien dit een handige en leuke manier is om deze architectuurroute in Rotterdam te verkennen. Geen fan van fietsen? Natuurlijk is het ook mogelijk om met het openbaar vervoer te reizen. Alle delen van de stad zijn zeer goed verbonden. Je kan ook lopen, maar?dan moet je zeker je sneakers aantrekken, aangezien sommige plekken nogal ver van elkaar af liggen.?

Schönbrunn Palace, outside Vienna at the time, by Bernardo Bellotto (c.1721-1780). The view is from the Gloriette, the highest point on Schönbrunn's grounds, the same as my photo in this set (and photos from other trips). The gardens were a lot more elaborate back then. These days, the gardens consist largely of flowers which I had in my own gardens in Illinois and Virginia, just a lot more of them. It looks like the central walkway was lined with potted trees, which were kept over the winter in an orangerie (i.e. greenhouse). This painting is in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. Empress Maria Theresa invited Bellotto to Vienna in 1658 to paint the monuments, including Schönbrunn. Bellotto was born in Venice. He was the nephew and pupil of Canaletto (Giovanni Antonio Canal, 1697-1768), and painted in Canaletto's style. At times he appropriated the name of Canaletto, much to the dismay of his uncle.
