A hive of creative activity, one of Europe’s great ports and a diamond centre of world importance, Belgium’s second city is still in many ways a Typical old Flemish town. It is a sheer pleasure to wander along the narrow streets or throught the spacious squares, where old buildings, theatres, smart shops and boutiques, fashionable restaurants and art galleries give the city an irrestible charm. A Diamond factory, The Maritime Museum, The Rubens ‘ house, the Plantin-Moretus Museum, the “Prince of the Printers“, and of course the Cathedral, the largest and the pride of Antwerp, will be a “ must “ to be visited.
Diamonds transformed from rough to polished will have no more secrets for you!
BALDO, Croatia, Zadar Surprising city! Mike you are the best! Such informative excursion, includes so many interesting! I fell in love with this city, where modern buildings are replaced by rococo, with the fanciful decorations of walls and cornices. We visited Sint Jacobskerk, Vleeshuis, were in Grote Markt, Groenplaats and also in other very interesting and enthralling places! Excursion is wonderful!
Camilla, Norway, Stavanger Antwerp is a surprising city. All of Belgian cities are surprisings. But Antwerp imprinted itself on my soul. Mike led us on its streets, showing with love every house, every sculpture, every cathedral. I liked very much the Steen castle. The castle is picturesque. There are the statue of giant and little men are looking at him - they are the heroes of fairy-tales of Grimm.
In general Antwerp will remain forever in my heart.

We recently commemorated our Millennium, I wouldn't confirm the date, due to many controversies, but, for sure, Brussels has reports of churches built in the second part of the 10th Century. Most probably, the town really started to grow around a bridge built on The Senne, river crossing Brussels. Don't get confused with The Seine crossing Paris!
