A UNESCO Heritage Site since 1998, the Grand Place is considered to be a central landmark of Brussels, as well as one of the most beautiful squares in all of Europe. Historically, the square has been an important center of commerce, but it has also borne witness to darker events, such as the burning of the first Protestant martyrs Henri voes and Jean Van Eschen by the Inquisition in 1523, and the beheading of the counts Egmont and Horn, who had spoken out against King Philip II, an act which also happened to trigger an armed rebellion against Spanish rule. An attack by the French in the late 17th century saw the whole of the square, with the exception of the outer shell of the Town Hall (ironically, the attack’s primary target), destroyed. During WWI, the Town Hall served as a makeshift hospital, as the Grand Place was flooded by refugees. . . . . #grandplace #grotemarkt #belgium #visitbelgium #explorebelgium #belphenomenal #ig_belgium #brussels #visitbrussels #explorebrussels #ig_brussels #travelgram #travelphotography #ig_travel

The Mont des Arts is basically a square, though its name translates to “Hill of the Arts,” as it’s surrounded by a number of museums and monuments, including the Musical Instruments Museum (MIM), the Royal Museums of Fine Arts, the Royal Palace, and the Cathedral of St. Michael and St. Gudula. It's also got quite a view 🙌 . . . . . #belgium #visitbelgium #explorebelgium #belphenomenal #ig_belgium #brussels #visitbrussels #explorebrussels #ig_brussels #travelgram #travelphotography #ig_travel
