The Grand Place(La Grand-Place) or Grote Markt is the central square of Brussels. It is a cobbled rectangular market square, surrounded by opulent guildhalls and two larger edifices, the city’s Town Hall, and the King’s House or Breadhouse building containing the Brussels City Museum.

Capital cities of Brussels(capital of Belgium) and Amsterdam(capital of Netherlands) are close to each other and separated by 2 hours by train. Trains are an effective way, as you would have heard already, to travel between European cities.

Brussels(capital of Belgium) is a fascinating place with stunning architecture and fascinating history. It is just two hours away from Amsterdam or Paris, via high speed trains and is a good stopover city or a weekend city to explore.

During our eurotrip, we took train from Amsterdam to Brussels and decided to spend half a day to explore Brussels before heading out to Paris. We had to stash our big luggage bags at some location in the train station before heading out to explore Brussels. We did lose some time trying to figure out the lockers and onward train to Brussels Central etc, so this information would be beneficial for other fellow travellers.
