Walking Brussels in a day
Brussels is the capital of Belgium and one of the most exciting cities to visit in Europe. With places like the Royal Palace, Cinquantenaire, and Cathedral of St, Michael and St. Gudula, there is something for everyone. One day can be spent visiting museums like Royal Museum of Fine Arts and Royal Museum of Art and History and the next can be hopping around the centre to admire Grand Place, Brussels Town Hall, and Manneken Pis, a famous bronze statue depicting a boy peeing into the fountain.
Mini Europe, a unique experience, allows you to travel around a model of the Old Continent and learn about its towns in just a couple of hours. And it’s perfectly located beside the top attraction of Brussels: Atomium. A symbol of the city, it carries 8 spheres of different heights with the top sphere (92m) dedicated to beautiful panoramic views of the city and a restaurant. And not to be missed is the LED light show held every evening!
