Belgium, joked about for being little, boring and full of cows has atleast 1 city worth checking;
Brussels has a very important international vocation : Brussels is the European home to the European Commission and to the Council of ministers of the European
Union (EU).
Brussels is the capital of Belgium. It is located in the centre of Belgium.
It is also the largest municipality of the Brussels-Capital Region.
Brussels is a bilingual city, this means that both French and Dutch are the official languages.
Street names and traffic sings are always in both these languages. It is a cosmopolitan city where many different cultures live together and where
different languages will always be heard on the street. The liveliness and international flair of Brussels is intimately related to its role as a crossroads for all
of Europe.
The Grand'Place (Grote Markt) is a good place to start your tour of the city.
This historic market square is widely considered to be one of the most beautiful town squares in Europe.
When in Brussels try some local beer. Belgium beer is considered the best beer in the world by many.
Make sure you visit one of the many typical and beautiful cafes and pubs that you will find here.
Trappist beer is very strong, between 8 and 11.5 percent of alcohol. So it is a good one to start with.
