"Belgian Beauty" Antwerp by Imaniac

Antwerp Travel Guide: 2,853 reviews and 7,112 photos

After years and years of delaying a return to Antwerp, I finally went in February 2004.

I met up with VT member Sinjoor and his 3 kids early in the morning. We went to the Zoo which was absolutely great. Even considering the amount of snow and ice.

After that another VT member Peter_P joined us for a long but fun city walk. I must have seen every corner in Antwerp. But there is sooo much tosee, and so much I didn't see. A good reason for me to come back really soon.

    I enjoyed reading your great Antwerp page, Roy! Definitely a city to add to my wishlist, even if there are moving statues around every corner!

    My sister spent some time in Antwerp and loved it! She also took pictures of the graffiti. I liked seeing your photos of Antwerp in February, especially the pictures of the zoo!

    Great page about Antwerp - if there was a little bit more sun it would be almost perfect ;-) The pedestrian tunnel looks interesting and rather unique.
