Brussel Belgium 🇧🇪

The first time visiting Brussels, Belgium, it is a small city that can be visited in 1 day. But in our European tour, we chose to land in Brussels for 3 days instead of Paris because the airfare is cheap, the hotel is cheap, and it is convenient to plan a train trip. Landed at 2:30 PM. Going through immigration here is not difficult. There was a funny story with immigration. I had a perfume test sheet from the airport in my pass. When I handed over my pass, the assistant officer took the sheet to smell... If it were me, would I smell it? No!!! Then he told me that this perfume smells good. We laughed and passed easily. Normally, European countries are clean, but here it is not as clean as I thought. The smell of urine is very strong at the train station. And there are homeless people living in almost every station. When going anywhere, be careful not to just look at your phone. We bought a 24-hour unlimited travel pass. You can travel by train, tram, bus. But it seems like the welfare here allows you to ride the tram for free. And of course, the European zone The price of the goods is 3-4 times more expensive than ours. If you meet a beggar and ask for 1 or 2 euros, it's okay. I don't want to say that 1 euro is 35 baht in my country. 😂 Even if I give a beggar at home, it won't be more than 20. The places to visit are the highlights in the square. You can walk around it all. Walk around, look at things, and relax. The first day, after taking the train to the hotel near Brussel Midi, the southern station, walk around looking for something to eat in the station area and then sleep until you're exhausted. The second day, plan to go to Paris as a one-day trip. The third day, travel in Brussels. - Grand Place The Grand Place is the place where the flower carpet festival is held. But the time I went was not the right time. In the square, there are various busking activities. There are a lot of people walking around. - Atomium is a landmark of science. Even the train station is decorated with various science figures. - Manneken-pis, a statue of a boy peeing. - Jeanneke-pis, a statue of a girl peeing. - Standbeeld Koning Albert Arts Park - St. Michael and St. Gudula Cathedral, the church where the King and Queen were married. - Brussels Town Hall - Everard’t Serclaes - Tintin Comic Mural, a cartoon mural. - Royal Palace of Brussels, a royal palace. - Triumphal Arch Many things here are beautiful, but traveling alone for Asians can be discriminated against many times (in the 4 countries on this European tour, Brussels was discriminated against). The people who I encountered were mocking me, saying “Ni hao”, but I just ignored them. Hey, I’m not Chinese, so why should I accept it? Some people knocked on the bus window where I was sitting (when I turned to look, I knew they were knocking on purpose). They handed me money and made fun of me… I ignored them because arguing with these people would be useless. Just think of them as people who don’t have the ability to travel and explore the world and open their minds to other places.
