Brussels

Brussels is one of the most fascinating cities in Europe. To begin with, it is a city of all times. The buildings and monuments in the historic heart of Brussels tell you stories about its glorious past. But this is also a living city, a city of the present and the future. A city of people and all their life stories.

A European metropolis like Brussels has always attracted me. Brussels fascinates me because it is the place where different European cultures meet. I have walked through Brussels so many times, to experience, feel and love the city. This walk through the historic heart of Brussels shows you the highlights of this fascinating city. The Grand Place, The Royal Palace, historic neighborhoods, beautiful gothic churches, the hero story of 'Manneke Pis', the Royal Galleries of Saint-Hubert. Lovers of stories, architecture and heritage feel truly at home in this city.

Walk with me, through my beloved Brussels. And I'll tell you the stories of this city. I am sure you will love Brussels too.
