Heart of Rotterdam Shopping Area
The Koopgoot, officially known as the Beurstraverse, is an iconic shopping arcade in the heart of Rotterdam. This unique underground shopping street, designed by architect P. de Bruijn, runs right under the busy Coolsingel. It connects two of the city's main shopping streets: Lijnbaan and Hoogstraat, and provides direct access to the Beursplein metro station. The interior, designed by American store designer Jon Jerde, invites fun shopping and provides a special shopping experience. De Koopgoot is known for its diverse range of shops and dining options, making it a popular destination for both locals and visitors to the city.
