The Castle grounds are planted with various kinds of spring bulbs, over a million of them by some accounts, all timed to bloom together. The result is a spectacular display of colour. On a sunny spring day it is a really pleasant way to spend a few hours. There is also an open air café where you can have a snack or lunch. There are also a number of stalls with bulbs for sale, offering advice on how to grow them.close

   The Grand Place is without a shadow of a doubt one of the most beautiful squares in the world. Dominated by the façade of the gothic Hôtel de Ville, it looks even more beautiful after dark so make sure to return after sundown.

   This area has two square (the Samll Sablon and the Big Sablon) and a really nice gothic church; the area is really interesting and full of antiquities shops where you can find things also for samll prices. Off course is plenty of bar and cafes where you can enjoy a nice beer.

   In this square during the week end there is a really good flea market where you can buy antiques, vintage clothes and books and many other things; it's actually one of the nicest flea markets I ever been to.

   The Piola Libri is a great place for an Italian experience in Brussels: Italian wine, food (antipasti, panini and salads) and books. Nice aperitifs, some eveinings with a jazz concert. Address: Rue Franklin 66-68 (nearby Schuman square, close to EU institutions)
