To be seen - European neighborhood definitely worth seeing. It's not every day you see where Europe's politicians gather. Very suggestive

Atomium Brussels - Wanted to visit this place for a long while and finally did in December 2019. It was well spend afternoon as there was a lot to be seen and explored: building itself is very interesting both outdoor and indoor,the longest escalator inside is a real attraction..a lot of art to be seen also..if visiting Brussels you must visit Atomium..would do great family day out too
