Manneken Pis

This is a fairly compact landmark whose form factor, however, did not prevent it from becoming an unofficial symbol of Brussels. On different days, he appears before passers-by in different costumes, of which, by the way, there are more than a hundred!

Royal Palace

This is the residence of the King of Belgium, built on the site of the burnt down former Palace of the Dukes of Brabant and open to visitors only in the summer months. Entrance to the main halls is free, and a ticket to the rest costs 2.5 euros.

Gallery of St. Hubert

Gallery of St. Hubert is one of the oldest covered galleries in Europe, where you can stroll under a glass vault while admiring the views of boutiques, as well as coffee and souvenir shops.
