Brussels in Winter

Brussels is the capital city of Belgium, and it's a beautiful place to visit any time of year. But if you happen to be in the area during the Christmas season, you're in for a treat!

Every year, Brussels puts on a light show that has people traveling from all over Europe to see. Every street is decorated and the lights twinkle all around! The effect is truly magical—it makes you feel like you've stepped into an enchanted winter wonderland.

If you're going to Brussels this winter, make sure to check out Winter Wonders and the Christmas Market! Starting November 25th and running until January 1st! Here you will see the huge Christmas tree and the sound and light show at the Grand Place! The ferris wheel, merry-go-round, and ice skating rink will keep you entertained! There will also be tons of stalls selling food, drinks, gifts...you name it!
