Brüssel - Bruselas - Bruxelles

Manneken Pis

Manneken Pis

One of the most famous but less intersting places in Bruxelles. It´s really not worse to look for it, I´m sorry. I heard this before but never the less I´ve been quite disappointed while visiting this place.
Interesting to know is that Manneken Pis got more than 500 costums now to choose. To give him clothes already started in the year 1698 by archduke Maximilian Emmanuel of Bavaria.
So I´ve had the big "luck" to meet him naked.....

The town´s got a lot of other beautiful places and buildings, especially on the "Grand Place", not to forget the Atomium, unfortenutly didn´t take a lot pictures overthere.

Pros:"amazing streetscenes, buildings, parks"
Cons:"unexpected dirty"
In A Nutshell:"one of the most beautiful central places of the world in an unexpected dirty city"
