    The rooftop of the bourse more closer the tower of the city hall.
    Capoue in uccle or etterbeek for so good ice cream (not in the center, this one isn t really good)

    Some more tips:
    1) Hallerbos for the blue flowers in april.
    2) cemetery laeken, to watch old graves
    3) royal serres, only open a few days a year
    4) flagey square on a summer night, for the vibes
    5) square ambiorix, beautiful park with nice houses surrouding it (one of victor horta)

    Bruxelles is a such a nice city, I visited it several time, but I think it really big city for me 😅 I still prefer my lovely quiet and comfy city Namur/Namen

    • @AlexandraTempleton

      Namur is also beautiful!! The good thing is we don't have to choose between the two ;) Thanks for watching!

      Thank you Robert :D I'm so glad you enjoyed! Bakeries of Brussels should be a whole video of their own ;P

    You forgot about “Janneke pis”, Manneke pis little sister :p And try to go for one beer in the cafes “Le Cercuille” near the Grand Place and have one beer from a stone skull beer pull :D

    One thing you should NOT do ... waving friendly at Leopold II

      it sucks! nothing compared to a mediterannean country

    Waving at the statue of Leopold II... perhaps not the greatest visual.

    • @AlexandraTempleton
      @AlexandraTempleton  7 дней назад +1

      Agreed, not one of my finer moments. It wasn’t until a few months after making this video that I learned more about history and what he had done 😔

      @@AlexandraTempleton I'm not saying it to wag fingers but this is still 'fresh' history and people seeing you do that in a video on the inter tubes, even in tempero non suspecto, might use it to point fingers at you and then things turn ugly in a hurry.
      I don't want things to turn ugly for you, you're a blessing, you have the right spirit, an absolutely gorgeous voice [rounding off an otherwise already phantasmagorical package of pulchritude and charm] and I don't want you to get bogged down by having to explain yourself in another video "Look guys, honestly, I'm a guest here, he looks kind of a distinguished gentleman, I had no idea he was a when I shot that footage, it's like two seconds in the whole video, right?"
      I love your videos, I'm definitely not blaming you for our history.
      Please give us more of your wonderful perspective. I love you, you're amazing.

    The interior of that bakery and overdone packaging of that éclair tell me "expensive and probably overrated"
