Fans of art, architecture, and politics will find loads to experience in Brussels. The Belgian capital is home to the European Parliament, which gives it a strong Eurocrat influence. But the city offers so much more, including beautiful plazas, quirky museums, and the even quirkier Manneken Pis. However, some of the best things to do in Brussels will involve your tastebuds. Not only is the Belgian beer scene legendary, but so is its wonderfully indulgent chocolate scene. Many of the city’s finest chocolatiers are right on the gorgeous, 17th century Grand-Place. And one of the best things to do in Brussels is indulging in frites, which come with an array of dipping sauces.
