    Being a Belgian myself I was surprised to learn about all these quirky places. Great video.
    BTW I'm a big fan of your filming and editing style. As a starting editor myself I can see the effort you put into your video's.
    Keep up the great work. Your channel deserves a lot more subscribers.

      Can I check with you if the subway stations have any ticket gantry? When I was there like almost twenty years ago, I think the subway stations do not have any ticket gantry. It was like they trusted the citizens to buy the tickets before they enter trains

    I was born in Brussels and have lived there for more than 60 years. However, I discovered hidden aspects of this city thanks to your video. Congratulation!

    Did you buy chocolates there ? Like Godiva and Leonidas? Really beautiful place.

      Ok saw you buying gourmet chocolates. That part brought back sad memories as I bought a heart shaped box Godiva for a lady that didn't work out in the end.
