Brussels Belgium Travel Guide
It's the most euro-centric city on the continent. And what will you find there? Well. we can start with chocolate, pralines, marzipan, waffles, frites, endives salads, beer from 400-plus breweries, museums stuffed with Flemish art, the surreal works of René Magritte, Art Nouveau architecture of Victor Horta, and a comic art center where you’ll meet Tintin and the Smurfs and all those other endearing Belgian and French comic-strip heroes – the likes of Asterix and Obelix, Lucky Luke, Gaston La Gaffe, and Spirou and Fantasio – who'll make you feel like a kid again. And if you come in mid-August in any odd-numbered year and pop over to the Grand Place in the center of town, you'll be treated to the most amazing realtime floral carpet anywhere on the planet. Yep. Oh, one more thing: the Bruxellois humor, it's downright wicked!
