Markthal
An indoor market and residential building under a horseshoe-shaped arch, its dome covered in a giant fruit-and-vegetable mural called 'Horn of Plenty.'
Markthal opened in 2014, designed by MVRDV. Apartments sit inside the arched building, while below are about 100 fresh food and street food stalls and restaurants. The interior of the dome is covered with roughly 11,000 square meters of colorful mural titled 'Horn of Plenty.' Entry is free, and you can sample Dutch herring, cheese and snacks from around the world. Underground there is a supermarket and parking, and it is right next to the Cube Houses.
