Stay : A weekend in Brussels
If you only have a weekend to discover Belgium, prefer to visit a city and its surroundings rather travelling around the country as soon as possible. Belgium is slowly visited, and you will have to take this rhythm. Bruges or Brussels are the most common choices but never disappointing. In Bruges, absolutely avoid the high season and enjoy a warmer and more welcoming city. There is an undeniable, very urban dynamism, in Antwerp and Ghent, while Namur or Liège provide a more popular festive character.

Day 1: Visit of Downtown
Steps: Bruxelles - Brussel
The Belgian capital will surprise you. The nerve center of the European Union is not just an administrative and bureaucratic center: Brussels is a dynamic city that radiates thanks to its architecture, its green spaces, its sweetness of life, but also and above all by its friendly bons vivant inhabitants. To begin with, visit via the rue du Marché-aux-Herbes. Admire the city href="" etbspf_id:330660""="" target="" _blank""="" title="" hotel"="" de="" ville="" bruxelles="" hall and the surrounding houses including the City href="" etbspf_id:69701""="" target="" _blank""="" title="" museum"="" de="" la="" ville="" bruxelles="" maison="" du="" roi="" of Brussels , stroll through the cobbled and charming streets of the Saint-Jacques district, full of bistros and small shops. And, of course, visit the , one of Brussels' most famous symbols. Its size (60 cm) may surprise you, but it represents the Belgian humor and its tendency to self-mockery.
