Brussels Belgium Brussels Day Tour

Location: Brussels, Belgium

Time: July 2010

Method: Fly from Stockholm to Brussels, train to Bruges Overview: Belgium is a very suitable place A country to travel on a budget. Brussels has relatively concentrated attractions, while Bruges is expensive, but the town is unique. How to travel outside Brussels Airport, the most beautiful square in Hugo’s eyes: Rampage

Accommodation: New Galaxy Hotel Recommended rating: Not recommended (far from the main train station, but close to the North Station. The room is small and untidy, It's hot and bug-infested, but it's very close to the shopping street and the red light district, and shopping is very convenient. The stairs are narrow and steep, and the prices are not cheap.) I didn't strictly follow the walking route on Qiongyou because I live near the shopping street. It starts from the shopping street. There are many people shopping on the street. July is the discount season, and various brands are on sale until they close at around 8 p.m. Carrefour is on the first floor of the shopping mall next to it. Students who need to buy complementary foods can do so here. What impressed me most when shopping on the street, apart from the crowds, was the respect for history in this bustling city.

This is an ancient cathedral standing in the middle of the shopping street, which looks very abrupt compared with the buildings on both sides. But people's attitude towards him is not to demolish him, not to hate him, but to accept him and slowly let him integrate into their lives. This is the most valuable thing. Recommended attractions 1. The Grand Place, as the most beautiful square in Hugo's eyes, does not exist in name only. Every sculpture is meticulous and the characters are very realistic. The outer walls of the city hall are even inlaid with gold.

2. The bronze statue of the Peeing Child is not far from the main square. Take a side road to the back of the town hall. Throughout the year, children are always dressed in a variety of clothes. Walking along this street, you will see a small shop making clothes for the bronze statue.

The waffle stand next to it is also very popular. Belgium is famous for chocolate and waffles. Fruit waffles cost 1.50 euros. Don’t miss it~~~On the way to the bronze statue of the Peeing Child, next to the city hall, you will see a bronze statue of a lying woman. All people touching it from head to toe are said to bring good luck. They are all about gold-_-|||

3. The square next to the National Library. The most interesting thing in this square is a clock with twelve little figures. Each number on the clock points to a little doll. On the left is the National Library, facing the spire of the Town Hall and with its back to the Cathedral. The cute clock is in the building on the right.

4. Churches in Brussels There are many churches in Brussels, the most famous of which are Cathedrale St. Michel and Eglise Notre-Dame of Notre Dame of Chapelle. . Notre-Dame Chapel of St. Michael's Cathedral. Because of the rain, I also went into many churches, all of which I encountered on the way from the square to the chapel of Notre Dame.

4. Graffiti in Brussels. There is a lot of graffiti in Brussels, and the content is unique and interesting. It can also be seen along the walls on both sides of the street. In addition, in addition to urbanization, Brussels also has the tranquility of a small town. There is a glass elevator next to the Notre-Dame Church in Chapel. After coming down, you can see the quiet and ancient town of Brussels.

5. Saint-Hubert Gallery, Saint-Hubert Promenade. This is one of the oldest promenades in Europe, where you can shop, eat and take shelter from the rain. Haha~~~There is also a 50th anniversary park, but I didn’t go there because it was far away from the urban attractions. Friends who are interested can go and have a look. In short, Brussels is a relatively comprehensive city, it is convenient to travel and the food is not expensive. It is very suitable for a one-day trip or a two-day trip.

July is still hot, so pay attention to sun protection~ ~Tips: Always pay attention to rynair’s cheap air tickets, air tickets to Brussels are very cheap. But the bus ticket is very expensive, 13 euros per person, it is only a 20-minute drive, and it only goes to the South Station! Students with train tickets can take the train. The trains in Belgium are quite good. If you pay for a train ticket, buying it online is 1 euro cheaper than buying it at the window. Of course, if you only play Belgium, it’s worth ten multi-person tickets.
