Today, we proceed to the Belgian capital, Brussels, which is also the capital of the European Union. As Belgium’s political capital and the administrative capital of the EU, Brussels is historic yet hip, bureaucratic yet bizarre, self confident yet unshowy, and multicultural to its roots. All this plays out in a cityscape that swings from the majestic to the quirky to rundown and back again. Organic art nouveau facades face off against 1960s concrete developments, and regal 19th-century mansions contrasted with the brutal glass of the EU’s Gotham City. This whole maelstrom swirls out from Brussels’ medieval core, where the Grand Place is surely one of the world’s most beautiful squares. We begin the orientation tour with the Grand Place along with the guild houses which is the central square of Brussels, apart from this we also see the Manneken Pis, Royal Palace, Royal Park, City Museum, Town Hall, Palace of Justice and the Museum of Fine Arts. We also take a photo-stop at the Atomium, an interesting structure that was built for the 1968 World expo. Later we visit Mini Europe. Located at the foot of the Atomium, MINI-EUROPE is the only park where you can have a whistle-stop tour around Europe in a few short hours. A truly unique voyage! Stroll amid the typical ambiance of the most beautiful towns of the Old Continent. The incomparable chimes of Big Ben welcome you to the heart of London. The gondolas and mandolins will invite you to discover the charms of Venice. Follow the T.G.V. from Paris to the other end of France. You can make the models work yourself: the eruption of Vesuvius, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the bullfight in Seville and many more. In all, see over 300 models and sites in a quite unequalled craftmanship. Overnight stay in Netherlands (B&D)
