Description
|
|
|
|
Modern art brightens the 40 metro stations that crisscross Brussels, which also has a dense network of bus and tram lines. It's also a very walkable city, with much to offer in the main square in particular. You can sit in a cafe and have cup of coffee or some frites, go to the beer museum, have beef 'n' beer stew, or even drink a draft or two at the ubiquitous beer gardens. Belgians know their beer, so you should get acquainted with it too. Speaking of beer, the kids will love the famous "Mannekin Pis" statue. The arboretum and museum of the comics are also fun. On the music sampler, Niforge Bistro 1406, Accordion Oberbayern, and Giles de Bainche perform 20 tunes, including "A Day Without You," "The Happy Cuckoo," "Nostalgia," "A Little Bit of Your Heart," "The Summer of My Dreams," and "Miss Accordéon." These ultra-portable little volumes provide a handy synopsis of walkable highlights of museums, historic sites, and shopping, as well as information about transportation, groovy places to eat and drink, and local customs. The music CD sets the mood for your adventures, while the map inserts clearly show routes and places of interest. Bon voyage!
