City Trip Brussels – Brussels is not only the capital of Belgium but also the seat of the European Parliament. Top sights in Brussels include the Grand Place, a square surrounded by guild houses, the Gothic town hall of Brussels and the Broodhuis, a museum dedicated to the history of the city. The eye-catcher of Brussels is the Atomium built for the 1958 World Exhibition, the nine connected spheres have become the symbol of the city of Brussels.
Almost everyone knows Manneke Pis, a figurine of a little peeing boy who has more than a thousand different outfits to wear. The view of Brussels from the dome of the Basilica of Koekelberg is awesome. The Palace of Fine Arts there displays rotating exhibitions of old art and contemporary art. The building alone is worth seeing. It was designed in 1928 by Victor Horta, the famous Art Nouveau architect. Brussels is also the capital of beer and chocolate. You can’t leave Brussels without visiting the Museum of Belgian Brewers or visiting one of the chocolatiers.
