Brussels Landmarks from Cinquantenaire to the Atomium
Enjoy the panoramic view from Cinquantenaire Park, a memorial place of Belgian independence. Marvel at the architecture of the Royal Palace, decorated with millions of emerald-coloured bug wings. See where modern Europe established its legislation at the European Parliament. Relive religious stories at St. Michael and St. Gudula Cathedral. Shop around the Grand Place, the market above the river that hosts the main buildings of the old town. Explore the picturesque Guilds headquarters, also the place of birth of the "Bible of Communist ideology" (The Communist Manifesto) by its gurus Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Meet the peeing boy's younger sister, Jeanneke Pis. Admire the Atomium, an iron crystal magnified 165 billion times. Also explore Mini-Europe and see famous European city pearls and buildings in one place. In the surroundings of Brussels, it is possible to organise a visit to Waterloo, the place of Napoleon's last battle and defeat. Daily tours to Ghent, Bruges, and Antwerp can also be organised. More information is available on request.
