Wielki Plac w Brukseli

The Grand Place of Brussels is a true architectural gem and cultural heart of Belgium. This UNESCO-listed monument impresses with its Baroque guild houses, impressive town hall and the Royal House, which houses the Brussels City Museum.

The square bustles with life all year round - every two years in August it is covered with a spectacular carpet of flowers, in winter it lights up with thousands of lights, and in summer it tempts with charming cafes.

The history of the square is equally fascinating - rebuilt after the French bombardment in 1695, it has retained its original architectural style and still witnesses important historical events.
