Historical SiteWe went to a couple of famous sight spot in Brussels. Among them, to me, the most impressive one is Waterloo Battlefield. Waterloo, as an ancient battlefield, witnessed the very last battle of Napoleon. He was defeated, however, his name was written in the history of Europe and of world with association of bravery and victory forever. Standing on the ground of Waterloo, I was able to sense the turbulence and heroism of Europe in the late 18 century.

Food CultureMussel, Steak, Fries, Beer, Wine...
In our life, food is always a unavoidable topic, so as in this trip. Food is the most direct, effective and enjoyable way to know and experience one place's culture. Through everyday dining, we were able to learn the europeans' definition about food and life. |
Life and LeisureAttracted by the performance of a street singer, we decided to sit down at an ice cream shop to enjoy a Haagen Daz and “let her go”, and let ourselves rest in the beautiful sunshine and the charming voice.
Stepping on the street of Brussels, we had the luxury, to watch different stylish buildings showing their own definition of beauty and art, listen to the old palaces and churches telling about past, and be involved in the life of European. |
