The Grand Place is Brussels cultural heart. As a showpiece it lacks the grandeur of St. Mark's Square in Venice but it also has a more intimate feel, like you might find in a city like Prague. The buildings that deck the square nearly all date from the 17th century and are magnificently gilded. I was here for Belgian Beer weekend in September and it really enhanced the gustatory experience to have such a class backdrop.

    Not to mention the 360 degree magnificent view when looking over the square, but while heading for the Grand Place, you can see only the pier ahead of the alley, although you can't see the whole picture, and you can see him waiting with an overwhelming presence. Also It was a picture that made me want to hold it on the camera. There are quite a lot of tourists during the day, so if you want to take pictures or enjoy the scenery quietly, early in the morning is recommended.
