A city full of oxymoron, Brussels is best defined as a concoction of
French versus Flemish, historic versus hip, bizarre versus boring.
Full of contrasts, contradictions and intrigue, this is a
multicultural equation that goes much deeper. And in an age where so
much is already discovered, Belgium's capital seduces as one of
Western Europe's unknowns. Brussels is an unbeatable city of
everything chic ranging from fine food, café culture, Art Nouveau
architecture and the surreal. Overnight at hotel. International
