Atomium. #Trovember
Must visit in Brussels, Belgium
The 60 years old Atomium is an international tourist attraction. This unique piece of architecture, created on the occasion of the World Fair of Brussels in 1958, became the most popular monument of the capital of Europe. The Atomium is established by 9 spheres (1 sphere on each of the 8 tops and 1 in the centre). These 9 spheres are connected by 20 tubes, the whole resting on 3 pillars. Its original structure symbolizes an iron crystal enlarged 165 billion times. #TroveOnTuesday  #Perspectives  #Culture  #Trovember
The amazing Atomium in Brussels. Incredible views of Brussels from the top sphere.

Nice hotel and good location but a bit dated with uncomfortable bed and no room service after midnight which is absurd for a hotel of this size and stature. Walls also paper thin so you can hear your neighbors talking or crying etc. staff doesn’t ask how your stay was on departure
