As it's being said, when it comes to classicism, you have to look for it in fine art. Despite its small geographic size, Belgium has exerted a significant influence on western art. The works of Bosch, Bruegel, Rubens, van Dyck, the brothers van Eyck, and Magritte represent only a fraction of the treasures you see gracing the walls of the notable art museums in Brussels. Walk in art with uin and free your mind!
Authentic Belgian fare offers hearty comfort food, and daily doses of chocolate and beer are worth every cent. Some of Europe's finest cuisine, including the best beer, local waffles and creamiest chocolates can be found in Brussels. Being produced since the 19th century, Belgian chocolate is a major part of the economy and Belgian cuisine. Since then, the cuisine has evolved to fit chocolate in many of its desserts such as the pralines, which are soft with a chocolate casing. Relishing these creamy and chocolaty delights in their country of origin, is definitely one of the best things to do in Belgium!
