Join us in Brussels ...
a multicultural city in the heart of Europe!

A multicultural city with a thousand faces, Brussels has surprises in store at every street corner. A majestic historic centre, a unique ambiance, where you can slip directly from one universe to another! You only need to walk a few metres from the working-class Marolles to the aristocratic Sablon… or pass from the mediaeval Grand’Place to the very trendy St Géry district … or in the same sort of contrasts you will find sophisticated futurism of glass-fronted office buildings next door to stylish Neo-Classical or Moderne-style houses!

As you discover the “Brussels spirit” you will see that it is based on a self-mocking and surreal sense of humour, washed down with plenty of beer, not to mention chocolate, and a passion for good food! Should you want to talk about it, just sit down on any terrace and start talking to your neighbours!
