6-day trip to Belgium visiting Brussels, Bruges, Knokke, Ghent

Bruxelles: Grand Place and Manneken-Pis

The symbol of Brussels is the monument Manneken-Pis. It is a fountain made famous by the little boy urinating into its basin.
The heart of Brussels is the “Grand Place”, the wonderful central square surrounded by magnificent buildings.
The charm of this square increases considerably when the flower market takes place, and it is marvelous at night thanks to a spectacular lighting.
