From the glittering glass facade of the European Parliament building to the beautifully preserved Medieval core, Brussels is a place of contrasts. Discover an exciting blend of the old and the new with your Brussels holidays. The Grand Place is the city’s beating heart and is a treasured site of local heritage. Great for stroll, just for its beauty alone. Visit the Musée de la Ville de Bruxelles and see an early example of the Manneken Pis – these cheeky statues are dotted throughout the city.
The whole of Brussels is soaked in history. Visit the site where Napoleon was finally defeated, as well as the famed Mont des Arts. The shopping arcade of Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert unites the historical and the modern as well as pleasing shopaholics. For something completely modern try MIMA – the city’s newest museum is full of cool, cutting-edge art. You can also discover quirky sights like Mini-Europe – and take in the whole continent’s major sights in pint-size form.
And the food is to die for, it might be the best reason to go. The cuisine here is French in style but with a level of expertise you won’t find in many places. Don’t forget to sample the cliché yet mouth-watering Belgian waffles and indulgent chocolate treats crafted by master chocolatiers.
It’s easy to get around too. The city is walkable and has strong links on the Metro. Its nightlife is something to experience, making it great for groups, couples seeking romance and more. Book your cheap city break to Brussels with Cassidy Travel for the best deal.
