Antwerp in Belgium has a wonderful
Railway Station, which is a >MONUMENT (and has lately been renovated).(and they are working again, to make it a "normal" ralway station and no longer a TERMINAL.
Even if you don't have the intention to board a train: go there and enjoy that special atmosphere where modern buildings can be so chilly and empty.......
Inside you will be able to admire this beautiful clock.
There is also a famous one in the restaurant: wonderful!
