Rotterdam Blaak is a railway and metro station in the centre of Rotterdam, if you're visiting Cube House or Markthal, you'll want to use this station as it's pretty much right outside.
There is no public pass-through without a ticket for the railway part of the station, which is pretty much the case for all stations in the Netherlands, as NS require an OV-chipkaart. There are ticket machines right outside the main entrance to the railway part of the station.
From the outside, the station reminds me a lot of Wembley Stadium with the arch going right above it, it can be a rather pretty photo-taking opportunity, with the arch, light rail tracks outside, and Cube House and Markthal in close proximity.
All metro and railway services going into Rotterdam Blaak call at Rotterdam Centraal, the city's main station.
Facilities inside the station are basic but as expected for a secondary station in a city.
