Brussels is the capital of Belgium and the centre of the European Union and NATO. It is a multi-cultural and multi-lingual city bordered by the Netherlands, Germany, Luxembourg and France.
The main sights in Brussels include St Michael and St Gudule's Cathedral (13th-16th century) and the famous Grand-Place in the heart of the city. It is here that the early 15th-century Gothic-style Town Hall and the Maison du Roi, containing the Municipal Museum, are located.
Other attractions include Mont des Arts, the park which links the upper and lower parts of the city; the elegant Place Royale built between 1774 and 1780 in the style of Louis XVI; the Manneken-Pis statue which dates from 1619 and symbolises the irreverence of the 'Bruxellois'; and dozens of museums of interest.
