Cheap Brussels (ZYR) Vacation Packages

Brussels is the capital of Belgium and the administrative capital of European Union. It is a consistent blend of medieval Flemish and progressive French colonization- a trait that is best reflected in its culture, architecture, language and culinary arts. Visitors would find the city to be rather hallmarked by its stunning contrast between 17th century Art Nouveau and contemporary architectures. Some of the spectacular highlights here include Brussels' Eiffel Tower, Horta Museum and the insignia of the 1958 World Fair- the Atomium. While navigating here, it must be borne in mind that Brussels operates as a bilingual city where both French and Dutch languages are official languages and as such all the streets there usually have two names.

Places of Interest in Brussels
La Grand Place or de Grote Markt (or the Main Square)
La Grand Place is the epicenter of the historical heritage of the city and is known for some of the most beautiful 300 year old buildings in the country. It has a number of magnificent guildhalls that are flanked by the city's Town Hall and the Museum of the City of Brussels that return a stellar illumination post the sunset. Visitors would be particularly mesmerized with a musical show which is organized by swathing colored lights on the buildings as a canvas.

Square de l'Atomium or Atomiumplein (the Atomium)
Sqaure de l’Atomium is the epicenter of international tourism and the hallmark of the World Fair that was held in the capital in 1958. It is made of nine enormous metallic balls arranged in crystal lattice connected through steel tubes that conceal escalators in themselves.

Musee du Cinquantenaire (or The Cinquantenaire Museum)
One of the largest museums in Europe, Musee de Cinquantenaire is a part of part of the Royal Museums for Art and History and is situated in Cinquantenaire Park in Brussels. It has an overwhelming collection of historical artifacts ranging from the Egyptian Pharaohs to pre-Columbian civilizations and 20th century.
