Things to do and places to see in Brussels

The capital of Belgium is also considered the capital of Europe, since it hosts all the major EU institutions and is home to a huge diplomatic corps.The city has also preserved its local culture, so you'll find street life, traditional markets and folklore - all of that topped with the indulgent Belgian cuisine: beer, chocolate and fries anyone?

• Grand-Place in Brussels: Often considered the world's most beautiful square, the Grand-Place is one of the main attractions in Brussels. Its history as a central marketplace dates back to the 12th century, and today it hosts a number of festive activities - including concerts, fairs and cultural events - while still serving a political and administrative purpose by housing the Brussels Town Hall.
• Atomium: The Atomium was constructed for the first post-war universal world exhibition (EXPO 58) The nine spheres represent an iron crystal magnified 165 billion times. An unavoidable icon of Brussels, it holds different exhibitions all year round and offers a 360° panorama over Brussels and its surroundings.
• Manneken-Pis: This bronze statuette, created in the 17th century by J. Duquesnoy the elder, embodies the irreverent spirit of Brussels. Also known as "Little Julian", due to confusion with another fountain, het Juliaensborreke, it was one of the many fountains serving the city.
