Antwerp Travel Guide: 3,341 reviews and 6,432 photos

Finally I found some time to start building my Antwerp page. I used to live very close to this wonderful city and could get there by train in less than one hour. There's a lot to see and do, Antwerp has pretty much everything museums, theatres, fashion shops, great architecture, best bars and resturants, and even a zoo. Not to mention that this is world's diamond center.
I'm deeply in love with this city and do believe that this is the most beautiful, friendly, vibrant, and unforgettable place in Europe!

Fun page on Antwerp. All I remember of this beautiful city is that it rained most of the day we were there. Hope you enjoyed my pages on Havana. What an interesting city!
