About New Holland

After the marble and gold, the brick of the old naval warehouses appears. New Holland is an artificial island turned into a place to hang out, with open areas and repurposed buildings. The water keeps shaping the scenery.

Wander around the complex and look for the circular Bottle House. Let your food break decide how long you stay; in rain or cold, focus on the places that are open indoors rather than counting on an afternoon outside.
