Usually this is a great place to spend a few days. However, all cafés, restaurants, museums etc are now closed because of the coronavirus, and non food shops are closed at weekends.

4/5 - Good

Brussels is a beautiful city with great architecture. Only downside is that it’s quite expensive there.

3/5 - Okay

A building site, lovely when finished I'm sure. Town centre a bit dirty sadly

Not really safe as a capital

5/5 - Excellent

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

The Sandemans free walking tour was a great way to get to know the main city sights - you just pay what you think it's worth :-) A quick visit the the EU parliament was interesting and very welcoming - so sad that the UK has left :-(
