Brussels is the most surreal of all capitals! In 2009, a museum entirely devoted to Magritte's work opened its doors… and a wide windows of surrealism. But if you want to see something else, you have hundreds of museums to choose from: art features prominently, but your curiosity may take you to the splendid and surprising museums of Musical Instruments, Aviation, Lace or Natural Sciences. And if Brussels, in the heart of Europe, prides itself on serving up a brew of different cultures, it is only to be expected that its museums include one devoted to Gueuze, that most typical of local brews. There is also a Brussels where children are kings, where the visit becomes playful and creative, where learning is fun and they learn to have fun! Many sites and activities, whether historic, scientific, interactive or aquatic are dedicated to the younger generations, indoors and outdoors.

Brussels
Symbol
Brussels is multicultural, multilingual, its population is cosmopolitan and the unexpected awaits you at every turn. No matter what time of year you visit, there’s always something happening: creativity here is contagious, good food is easy to find and the mood is festive. Add a dash of humour and a pinch of self-mockery and you have the recipe of the city’s legendary conviviality. Less than two hours from Paris or London, its comparable quality of life and the modernity of its infrastructures make it n° 1 city for congresses, conferences, lobbyists or press correspondents. Capital of Europe, as well as of comic strips, surrealism, chocolate, Art Nouveau and beer, it is also the greenest city. Its role and its talents may be on a vast scale, but it owes its very special charm to its human scale. It is an ideal size which enables it to adapt to your requirements or wishes, however ambitious they may be, and however long your stay. But judge for yourself: Brussels awaits you… and is already missing you. © Visit Brussels
