IMPORTANT NOTE I must say Brussels has beautiful architectural buildings and people too... But when we visited there (May 2018) I have seen lots of Syrians were there , with there extended families... on roads... at train stations... bust stops... almost everywhere ... That gave me bad impression of the city.... This people were begging on road and following travelers to get some money from them.
