In 1995 I moved here to go to college. 'Aren't there enough colleges in Holland?' you'd say. Well, of course there are, but who would not want to study and live in Amazing Antwerp for a while?? The second largest city in Belgium, Antwerp has the cosiness of a country town. With three universities and several colleges, the city has a very student-friendly atmosphere.
- In a nutshell:Culture, shopping, pubbing, clubbing: Antwerp has it!

ah only one official university left since the start of the academic year 2003/2004! Pelgrom is very cosy but the choice of beers is limited, nevertheless a place to visit! and you are right about Vogeltjesmarkt, better go on Saturday!
Lovely Antwerp page !
Good tips about my hometown
Looks like a nice city to visit.
Nice page and tips !!
Beautiful page. Nice photos and good info
Die Pelgrom lijkt me wel tof! Wanneer gaan we?
Ik hou ook van Irish pubs (Guinness) en jazz Aryatti ;-)
Café De Pelgrom sounds cool!
Thanks for some interesting information.
