Monument a Everard t'Serclaes (Pass by)

Manneken Pis (Pass by)

The famous statue symbol of Brussels. Legends, official costumes and the irreverent spirit of the city.

La Basilique Notre-Dame de Bon-Secours (Pass by)

This elegant 17th-century Baroque temple is deeply linked to the popular devotion of the old humble areas. For centuries it was a place of pilgrimage to ask for protection and help in the face of illness or hardship. From here, the road to Santiago de compostela started. Its architecture contrasts with the dominant Gothic of the centre, providing a warmer and more intimate air.

Anspach Shopping (Pass by)

Great urban artery that transformed the city in the 19th century, symbol of modernization and contemporary Brussels. Here began the formation of the city.

Fontaine Anspach (Pass by)

The river that gave rise to Brussels and today runs underground, a key piece to understand the urban evolution of the city.

Les Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert (Pass by)

We pass the elegant 19th century galleries, pioneered in Europe, where luxury, Belgian chocolate and commercial tradition are mixed.

Jeanneke Pis (Pass by)

Female counterpart of the Manneken Pis, hidden in an alley city centre.

La Mort Subite (Pass by)

Legendary Brasserie where lambic beers were popularised. It maintains its original decor and has been a historical meeting point for artists, writers and workers since 1928.

St. Michael and St. Gudula Cathedral (Cathedrale St-Michel et Ste-Gudule) (Pass by)

Main church of Belgium, example of the Brabantine Gothic. His spectacular stained glass windows tell of real and biblical scenes, and his baroque pulpit is a sculptural masterpiece. Royal weddings and national ceremonies are held here.

Royal Palace (Palais Royal) (Pass by)

Royal Palace, Royal Park and Royal Square. A neoclassical garden designed for the court, green centre of political power, a ceremonial residence of the king, open to the public in summer and illustrated Square built after a fire that destroyed the ancient medieval palace.

Coudenberg Palace (Pass by)

Underground ruins of the palace where Charles V, one of the most powerful men in Europe, resided.

Musical Instruments Museum (MIM) (Pass by)

This museum houses one of the most important collections of musical instruments in the world, with more than 8,000 pieces from all continents. The visit allows you to trace the history of music from ancient civilisations to the modern era, including traditional African, Asian, European and American instruments. The building itself is a masterpiece of Art Nouveau, designed at the end of the 19th century with wrought iron, glass and an elegance typical of modernist Brussels. One of its great attractions is its panoramic terrace, from where you get one of the best views of the historic centre. Thanks to audio guides, visitors can listen to how each instrument sounds, making the experience immersive and educational.

Palace of Charles of Lorraine (Pass by)

This palace was the residence of the governor of the Austrian Netherlands in the 18th century and represents the splendour of the Enlightenment in Brussels. Carlos de Lorraine was a great patron of arts, science and culture, transforming the city into a premier intellectual centre. The building combines classic elegance with spacious rooms for receptions, exhibitions and cultural gatherings. At the time it housed art collections, libraries and scientific cabinets that reflected the enlightened spirit of progress and knowledge. Today it is part of the Mont des Arts museum complex and preserves the aristocratic refinement of 18th century Brussels.

Rene Magritte Museum - Abstract Art Museum (Pass by)

This museum is dedicated to Belgian painter René Magritte, one of the key figures of world surrealism. His work plays with perception, logic and reality, inviting the viewer to question what he sees : pipes that are not pipes, men with cylinders floating, skies that are confused with interiors. The collection traces his entire artistic career, from his early influences to his most celebrated works, explaining his philosophical thinking and his impact on contemporary art, advertising and cinema. It is a fundamental visit to understand the role of Belgium in the great artistic movements of the 20th century.

BOZAR Centre for Fine Arts (Pass by)

Known as BOZAR, this cultural centre is one of the most important in Europe. Designed by celebrated architect Victor Horta, it combines modern functionality with a sleek and sober aesthetic. Major international art exhibitions, classical and contemporary music concerts, film festivals, conferences and cultural events are held here. Its concert hall is famous for its excellent acoustics. BOZAR symbolises modern, open, cosmopolitan and culturally vibrant Brussels, perfectly complementing the historical heritage of the city.
