Antwerpen-Centraal

Leopold II had this unusual rail station built as a neo-Baroque monument to the railway age in 1905.

Reviewed By HenkSpring - Antwerp, Belgium

Although an operating railway station the out and inside are worth a visit for its monumental grandeur. A late 19th. century with beautiful facade and a majestic interior. Look at the marble floors in the main hall, all made out of Belgian marble. Look up inside to the dome. A must do is have a coffee in the cafetaria (or foyer), when you walk in from the front go up the stairs and take a right. Beautifull interior, like a time capsule. The level ground platforms have an impressive glasshouselike ceiling. In the late 20th. century extensive works were carried out such as a tunnel underneath and a shopping centre in excavated levels without disturbing the main historical structure.

Reviewed By hdias - Reigate, United Kingdom

The Beguinage in Lier is a must see place which makes a lovely walk. The small dwellings along the narrow streets were originally homes were for unmarried women and run by nuns. They continue to be inhabited today.

Grote Markt

Reviewed By 374jimmyp - Mechelen, Belgium

When you enter the Central Place(Grote Markt) in Mechelen, you seem to be walking into history. In the shadow of the old St-Rombouts Tower(Cathedral), you will notice immediately the ancient buildings that breathe nostalgy. You can enjoy the nice restaurants or visit the cit hall with a guided Tour. Of course, this tour is not limited to the Centre only. Climbing the Cathedral's stairs and enjoying the whole City of Mechelen is a ream pleasure. Mechelen is ranked top 10 worldwide in the "Best Future Cities".
