Brussels Off the Beaten Path Tips by SnoopySue

This great museum is located about 10 km outside Brussels. Surrounded by a lot of parks and walking areas, it is ideal place to spend a sunny dan. In case of rain go inside and discover interesting sculptures, maps, animals, plants etc. from Central Africa. Friend of mine who lives in Brussels told me that Tervuren was opened for World Fair (cannot recall the year) and that people from colonies were exposed for visitors in simulation of their natural habitat (how inhumane!). We have tried to find out more but museum guide was reluctant to give us straight answer!

You can feel like a giant in Mini Europe - nice park exhibition in Atomium-Heyzel area.
London's Big Ben, Berlin's Brandenburg Gate, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Bull Ring in Seville, and Montmartre in Paris, as well as more modern emblems of continental achievement such as the Channel Tunnel and the Ariane rocket. There is also possible to read some highlights about every EU country and even to listen a national anthem.
