From the calm water, the quiet face of Rotterdam unfolds. The red brick houses with pale green roofs stand firmly on the quay of an inland dock, their reflection perfectly caught in the smooth water, as if the city has paused itself for a moment.

Skyscrapers and modern buildings rise on the horizon, a striking skyline symbolising Rotterdam's past and future. The sleek houses, perfectly match the skyscrapers appearing in the background. The image exudes a calm energy, as if the city calms down for a moment, balancing its dynamic nature with the stillness of the water. The city is alive, but here that movement is slowed down, tempered by the reflection in the water. Rotterdam shows itself in its simplicity in a moment of stillness.
