 Colourful grand place |
Grote Markt Brussels 1000 Belgium |
Every day except Monday and Thursday, Grand Place becomes a bit of a Flower Market. Green Fingers, hither! Amidst the daily abundance of flowers, plants and herbs you won't have an easy task if you're just planning to buy a flower for a friend. There is so much to choose from that hours of heartwrenching doubt will be yours. This Flower Market is an envigorating refreshment for Grand Place. And, of course, you can just behave like the majority of tourists: saunter a bit, sniff a bit and go for a coffee or a beer and watch the action. Review © 2007, Wcities |

The artistic side of the city |
Rue du Marché aux Herbes Brussels 1000 Belgium +32 (0)2 513 8940 (Informatie voor toeristen) |
The Kunstmarkt (Art Market) is a small but cosy market where artists show art and handicrafts of their own design. Beautiful to see, especially if you realise that each object was made with love. Aquarelles, cartoons, pen drawings in Indian ink, figures made of iron wire, jewellery - you will find all these things at this market. One of the artists even makes clocks and paints them by hand. The stalls are covered with green and red canvas, so can easily be seen from a distance. Review © 2007, Wcities |

 A classic in the genre |
Place du Jeu de Balle Brussels 1000 Belgium http://www.marcheauxpuces.org/ |
This daily flea market in the heart of the Marolles is well-known in Brussels for those who are seeking bargains and have patience. Everyday vendors awake early and bring their goods with the hopes of making some money. Haggling is allowed and encouraged, and as the day draws close to 1pm, it gets easier to buy something for the price you want to pay. You'll find everything here from photo frames to the desk to display them on. This market exemplifies the phrase, "One man's junk is another man's treasure." On Sundays antiques are also on display here. Review © 2007, Wcities |
