"Multiple Ixelles" Ixelles by Norali

Ixelles Travel Guide: 22 reviews and 49 photos

A place dear to Ixellois: their ponds. Two ponds merged, the third one was turned into the place we know today as Place Flagey.

Since early october 2004, I work for a small company in Ixelles municipality.

So far, work takes much of my time there.. but as soon as I can organize myself, I'll check the cool spots, knowing there are many of them.

To begin with, some winter pictures. Soon, I'll post gayer pictures: with a hint of hot, of colour, of accents... still, in Black and White because I was told "Black IS a colour".

Urban society becomes more and more isolated from the beasts. Many people today don't even realize where meat comes from. Perhaps these statues may be the only large "animals" children will know. Then what will life be like for mankind in isolation.
