The Grand Place

Indeed it is such a grand place in Brussels, Belgium. It was just a day trip in Brussels before we took the eurostar to London.


So many tourists in summer..





I simply admire the architectural designs of the Grand Place.


The Grand Place is the central square of Brussels. It is surrounded by guildhalls, the city's Town Hall, and the Breadhouse. The square is the most important tourist destination and most memorable landmark in Brussels, along with the Atomium and Manneken Pis. It measures 68 by 110 metres (223 by 360 ft), and it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

    I love the building too. I could stand there for an hour staring at its beauty. I will mark this place in my traveling diary.
