Architecture, Museums, and the EU
Brussels, the capital of Belgium, harmoniously combines historic grandeur with modern cultural life. Its architectural style is an homage to its rich history. Start your journey at the magnificent Grand Place, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Stroll through its stunning square surrounded by opulent guildhalls and the impressive Town Hall.

Don’t miss the Atomium, an iconic modernist structure offering panoramic views of the city. Nearby, the Royal Palace of Brussels, the official palace of the Belgian monarchy, is open to visitors during the summer months and showcases exquisite interiors and grand architecture.

For art enthusiasts, Brussels has a lot to offer. The Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium boast an impressive collection of works by masters like Rubens, Bruegel, and Magritte. Even for non art enthusiasts those names must sound familiar. The Magritte Museum, dedicated to the famous surrealist artist René Magritte, is also a must-visit.

Brussels is the heart of the European Union. You can visit the Parlamentarium which offers a dynamic and interactive experience, providing insights into the workings of the European Parliament and the EU. It’s suitable for all ages and available in all 24 official EU languages.

Food
Brussels’ culinary scene is as rich and varied as its cultural offerings. Indulge in traditional Belgian dishes like moules-frites (mussels and fries) and waffles. Don’t forget to visit a classic Belgian café, such as Café Belga or Le Cirio, to savor delicious pastries and coffee in a charming, historic setting.

For a more modern culinary experience, explore the Saint-Géry neighborhood, known for its trendy bars and restaurants. Here, you can sample local specialties and international cuisine, making it a perfect spot for food enthusiasts.

In Brussels, you’ll find five Takumi Restaurants, with the newest restaurant on Rue Sainte-Catherine 35. At all Takumi’s you’ll find your favorite ramen and the welcoming feeling of the Takumi Family.

Chansons
Brussels’ musical heritage is vibrant and diverse. As the city of Jacques Brel and the heart of the European Union, it offers numerous opportunities to indulge in musical experiences. Attend a concert at the historic La Monnaie Opera House or the BOZAR (Centre for Fine Arts), which hosts a wide range of performances from classical to contemporary music. For a more intimate experience, enjoy a performance at one of the city’s many smaller venues or jazz clubs.

Brussels outdoor activities
Brussels is also known for its beautiful parks and gardens. The Parc du Cinquantenaire, with its triumphal arch and wide lawns, offers a delightful escape for a leisurely stroll or a picnic. The Bois de la Cambre, a large urban park, is perfect for relaxing amid nature or enjoying a boat ride on its lake.

Cycling enthusiasts will find Brussels to be a bike-friendly city with numerous paths and trails. Rent a bike and explore the scenic routes through the European Quarter or along the Canal.
