🇧🇪Brussels, the Most Beautiful Square According to Hugo

🚄 Eurostar can get you there in just two hours. If you book in advance, you can find round-trip tickets for around 140 pounds, which is very convenient. For the more adventurous, you can take the Eurostar for 50 pounds one way and return by bus, which is much cheaper but will take over 8 hours. ⏰ I arrived around 11 am, and I think this time slot is perfect as the shops are just opening. Upon arrival, I purchased a transportation card. There are self-service ticket machines, which are very convenient for buying single tickets or using Apple Pay. 📍 Sightseeing Route: ✅ Manneken Pis: One of the most famous landmarks in Brussels, perfect for a tourist photo. ✅ Grand Place: Described by Hugo as the most beautiful square in Europe, it's truly stunning with its golden Gothic architecture and museums. Each building is incredibly beautiful. 💝 ✅ Galeries Royales Saint Hubert: This arcade features fashion stores, coffee shops, and more. ✅ Belgian Comic Strip Center: A must-visit for comic fans, with an entrance fee of around 10 euros. It houses many animation manuscripts, and the first floor is a comic souvenir shop. 🍖 Food: 1️⃣ Fin de Siècle: There was a queue of about 20 minutes at noon, but the roasted ribs and stewed beef were delicious, perfect for those with a Chinese palate. The salad was also quite good, and I tried a peach beer, which was acceptable and definitely better than what you'd find in the UK. 2️⃣ Chez Leon: With a sign at the entrance recommending it from 2016 to 2024. There was a queue, but the restaurant is large, so it only took about 20 minutes to get a table. The food was good, though not as impressive as expected, but the value for money was decent. In front of restaurant 1️⃣, there are some boutiques worth exploring. It seems like Isabelle Bajart: The store is quite small, but the clothes are very nice and worth browsing. #Belgium #BelgiumTravel #BelgiumDayTrip #BrusselsFood #UKSurroundingTrips #UKStudents #BrusselsTravelTips #LondonStudents #LondonSurroundingTrips #Brussels
