Episode of Brussels/Bruxelles

Tomo & Chouchou went to Belgium in February for Valentine's day.

First, we went to the capital city: Brussels/Bruxelles. In Brussels, there are buses, trams and subways to go to downtown, so it's very convenient. 

We went to the main place of Brussels "Grand-Place"(La Grand-Place de Bruxelles in French). The Grand-Place is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
The buildings in Grand Place were so impressive. Especially "the Maison du Roi" had power. In front of La Maison du Roi, there's the City Hall of Brussels.
There's a tourist information office in the City Hall of Brussels.
We found a train made of chocolates in the tourist information office.
We can understand Belgium is famous for chocolates. 

 

We also visited other famous spots in Brussels. We wanted to see Manekken Pis. Of course, we checked it and took a photo. We also wanted to go to Tintin shop. We enjoyed Tintin world a lot in Bruxelles. At last, we wanted to taste Belgian chocolates, so we visited chocolate shops and famous pastry chef/pâtissier stores. We enjoyed tasting delicious chocolates and cakes in Brussels.
