Brussels - The Capital of Europe can be reached from London in
less than 2 hours by Eurostar. It is easy & a great way to visit for
a short break or a Brussels holiday.
Cartoons, chocolate & beer may not be the first thing that springs
to mind when you think of Brussels. However these three items
are significant for the capital of Belgium.
Tintin, The Smurfs, Spirou, Mortimer & others were born here & are
immortalized at the Belgian Centre for Comic Strips.
Chocolate shops thrive throughout Brussels and museums to look
out for are the Musee du Cacao et du Chocolat, Planete Chocolat
with demonstrations every Saturday at 3 pm while Le Chocolatier
Manon, Chocolaterie Duval, La Maison du Chocolat and
Chocolaterie Jamart are chocolate lovers heaven. By previous
arrangement, the chocolatiers will reveal some of their secrets to
you.
Belgium is for beer connoisseurs, as Belgians, quite rightly, take
their beer seriously. With over 450 beers produced nationwide the
choices seem endless. Speciality beers such as raspberry, cherry ,
brown, white and even chocolate beer, may seem odd the first
time but I assure you they are delicious. Later you can delight in
geuze beer, Trappist beer and of course, lambic beer, perhaps the
most famous beer of Belgium. Bars and restaurants serving the
finest beers abound in the comfortable and impressive city centre
of Brussels.

When you need to get away to get new ideas, new perspectives
of life try Brussels. You may simply want to indulge in art, gourmet
dinners and concentrate on the romance with your loved one.
Using the Eurostar fast train service, the journey from London
toBrussels and back for a short break is very feasable, indeed
many business people commute regularly on this route.
There is absolutely no time to be bored as Brussels is rich on
culture, history, museums and art. You might even have difficulties
choosing where to eat as the variety of restaurants is so great.
Dining at Comme Chez Soi or La Quincaillerie, a former hardware
store turned restaurant are among the many choices while
nightlife is enjoyed at The Fuse, at Rue Blaes 208.
Some of the top Brussels attractions include the Grand Place,
celebrated as is one of the most beautiful squares in Europe,
Cathedrale de St Michel and Parc de Bruxelles, between
Parliament & the Royal Palace.For family and children, the Belgian
Centre for Comic Strip Art, Mini-Europe and AutoWorld are very
popular too.
To add to your pleasure and to avoid queuing, the Brussels Card
from € 20 will make you feel like one of the VIPs attending the
NATO Headquarters or the Espace Léopold complex (European
Parliament). The Brussels Card is your entrance ticket to a long list
of Brussels’ museums and the buses, trams and metros of the
Brussels Public Transport Company.
You can choose from a wide range of quality Brussels Hotels. The
selection offers 5 star luxury hotels, modern hostels with private
rooms, bed & breakfast establishments and holiday homes
throughout Belgium.
The cartoons, chocolate & beer of Brussels makes a more
appealing choice for a European short city break.
