Brussels is the capital of Belgium and has that old world feeling that many other european capitals. It is a cosmopolitan city with a mix of old and new. It has great museums and many old and historic buildings.
It is also the capial of the European Union.

A visit to Brussels is required for any visit to Belgium. Waffles and
Lace are products the city is famous for. More the reason to visit this vibrant city.

    Nice page! I have never been in restaurant 't Kelderke. Nobody is a prophet in his own country. I'll be in Brussels in a couple of days and... who knows? Thanks for the tip! And... have a nice time in Paris soon ;-)

    I liked your outsider's view on my town, but … you don't drink beer! Next time try one of our Trapist beers. We don't brew beer; we are brewing nectar.
