Brussels is brilliant for short break

Brussels is brilliant for short break
For a grand break in Brussels, holidaymakers should look to stop off at the Grand Place.

Set in the middle of the Belgian city, the cobbled square features a daily flower market during the summer months, with various concerts and audiovisual performances also taking place throughout the year.

Meanwhile, as the area is flanked by beautiful guild houses and the gothic Town Hall, tourists are likely to have their breath taken away by the astounding surroundings.

As the hustle and bustle of the city encompasses them, visitors can relax in one of the many local bars and cafes at Grand Place for a drink and a bite to eat.

And with the attraction declared a World Heritage Site by United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation in 1998, tourists are almost guaranteed to have a brilliant break in the Belgian city.

From Grand Place, visitors can wander to nearby Eikstraat to behold the world-famous Manneken statue.
