Rotterdam is a large port city in the west of the Netherlands in the Province of South Holland with a population of over 620,000. It lies in the Rhine-Meuse delta, and is connected to the North Sea by the 30-kilometer-long Nieuwe Waterweg canal.
Rotterdam was first mentioned in 1283. It received city rights in 1299, and developed significantly in the 17th and 18th centuries through trade with France and England or the shipping industry. Rotterdam's seaport already played a significant role in the life of the city and still impresses today with its size and capabilities.
If you want to get to know Rotterdam, start your tour with the Gothic St. Lawrence Church, one of the most distinctive buildings, also one of the oldest, but which suffered significantly during the Luftwaffe carpet raids of 1940 - its walls and tower survived then. Today, in addition to its beautiful facade, the church's interior is worth seeing, with its historic altars and tombs. The city also boasts a number of museums full of valuable art collections. Particularly noteworthy is the large Boijmans Van Beuningen museum collecting works by many famous artists, or the Kunsthal Art Museum, which hosts temporary and thematic exhibitions.
Rotterdam is a city that is constantly vibrant. There you can find numerous clubs, discos and pubs, plus there are many events, concerts and festivals. In the summer there is a good chance that you will come across one of the numerous open-air performances, and in the winter - a fair or Christmas market.
Rotterdam is a major transportation hub, where highways and railroads intersect. In addition, you'll find an airport and the largest seaport in Europe. The city has five subway lines, as well as streetcars and buses, so getting around Rotterdam and other towns in the metropolitan area in the western Netherlands should not be a problem.
Our buses stop near the Erasmusbrug suspension bridge and the Kunsthal Museum on Zalmstraat 9. Wanting to visit Rotterdam - a bus can be a great choice, especially since it is an inexpensive and more environmentally friendly option than flying or driving your own car.

Prudnik is a small town in Opole province, historically part of Upper Silesia. The rivers Prudnik and Zloty Potok flow through it. It is only 5.5 kilometers from the Czech border.
This medieval town was granted city rights in 1279. The only monument, so to speak, remembering those times is the castle tower (Woka Tower), the oldest tower of its kind in Upper Silesia, from which one can admire the panorama of the city and its immediate surroundings.
Prudnik was not heavily damaged during World War II, so it reflects well the atmosphere of the historic city. Worth seeing is Prudnik's rectangular market square with colorful 18th- and 19th-century townhouses. In its central part is the town hall with a tall tower, and some of the older buildings in the city - the Marian column and the statue of St. John Nepomucen.
Around the city, due to the nearby location of the Opawskie Mountains, one can also find many walking and hiking trails, and in nearby Prudnik-Les there is a well-known Franciscan monastery along with the St. Joseph's sanctuary, where Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski was imprisoned in 1954.
Prudnik is crisscrossed by national and provincial roads. The city is fairly well connected with its nearest neighbors and is located
on the route leading to the Trzebina-Vysoká border crossing with the Czech Republic.
The town also has a railway station and the Prudnik PKS bus station with frequent buses. Numerous connections to Polish and European cities depart from the bus station. If you have never been to Prudnik, but are planning a vacation in the Opawskie Mountains area, for example, visit this town as well - it will surely charm you.
