in Belgium, Ntrips
It has been a little while since my last time in Bruxelles (and only 48h last time, saw a lot, but there is a more than 48H's worth to see in Bruxelles for sure. This time I was there on my way to Tomrrowland
No direct flight to Brussels of course, so the easiest was to fly to Amsterdam and take the 1H Thalys to Brussels (outside of actually getting tickets on it, it books out so I had tickets for a later train and I kind of forced our way on the next one, which they don't love, but it can be done):
After arriving, went for a walk to enjoy city sights:
After visiting the Bruxelles City Museum (clickme), it was time to enjoy the night light at Grand Place:
Next day, went to enjoy more sights, including some yummy chocolates:
Mechelen
Tomorrowland
On the way back, before going to Romania, I had another day in Bruxelles, given the nice day, it made sense to go to Parc du Cinquantenerre:
While there, I went to visit the impressive Musées Royaux Art et Histoire, quite an extensive museum (click on the link for museum info).
The nearby park was quite nice and a good place for a picnic:
Finishing the night at Grand Place of course:
The next morning, the airport didn't suck:
Lots of chocolate and other yummy stuff was had, glad to have been back.
Thalys is the fastest, but it books out, hard to get seats on the train you want
gaufre and duck foie gras? Yes please!
it's the only place where I can buy beers I actualy like
