From the end of November to the beginning of January, the Belgian capital gets dressed up for Christmas. Enjoy its lively atmosphere on this free Christmas tour of Brussels, where you'll visit the typical markets with gifts, decorations, and sweets.
The smell of typical desserts, the lights adorning the streets, the decorations, and the wreaths... You can start to feel the festive atmosphere of Christmas in Brussels. To discover what these special dates are like in the Belgian capital, we'll meet at the designated time at the famous Grand-Place, where we'll kick off this free Christmas tour by admiring the large illuminated tree in the square.
Santa Claus' helpers and the Three Kings often get lots of presents in Brussels' most emblematic square. After exploring its different stands, you'll see the Manneken Pis dressed up in its best clothes. Then, we'll head to the Church of St. Nicholas to discover the Belgian devotion to this famous saint.
We'll continue our free tour of Brussels by exploring the surroundings of the Bourse Palace and the Notre-Dame de Bon Secours. We'll also head to the Place Sainte-Catherine, where you'll see the church of the same name and see which are Belgium's main Christmas foods in its market. Among these foods, sweets like the cougnou and typical dishes like stoemp aux chicons & lardons stand out. Of course, we won't miss the tartiflettes and the popular liquor called peket.
If you want, you can grab a traditional Christmas hot wine. This classic beverage is mainly served in over 250 wooden Christmas stands that are scattered in the city center during this time of year. Desserts, gifts, ornaments... You can find many things at these stands, as you can see!
Finally, we'll walk around the Place de Brouckère and the Royal Theatre of La Monnaie, and pass by the iconic Galerías Reales de Saint-Hubert.
