Come with me on a walking tour of Art Nouveau architecture in Brussels, Belgium ❤. If you're a solo traveler or looking for affordable things to do in Belgium, this is a great choice. I knew that Paris was famous for it's Art Nouveau buildings, but I didn't realize Brussels was too! The famous architect, Victor Horta, was a champion for the style throughout the city, kind of like Gaudi was in Barcelona. Links for all the buildings I visited and the map I used are below! I hope you enjoy today's tour and the last video from Brussels for this trip.

Thanks so much! I was trying to decide if I should go to the Horta museum or not. I think it's on the list now!

I *really* enjoyed it (they just had weird hours when I visited). I wish I would have gone at the beginning of my trip, so I could appreciate the buildings around the city more. Definitely check out the comic book route too!

Loved the video!!! A little side-note, that "Cathedral"... isn't a cathedral. It's actually the Holy-Trinity-Church. For Belgian standards it is a church of a small to average size. If you're ever in Brussels again, visit the national Cathedral of Saint-Gudule and Saint-Michel. Then you'll be able to see the difference in size. It isn't the biggest cathedral in our small country. Also if you want to go on an Art Deco tour in Brussels, visit the National Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Koekelberg (The world's largest art deco building ever constructed).

Hi Regan, absolutely awesome video. The other night I had a dream with an all art noveau neighborhood with the most beautiful houses and even the streets designed with organic lines going up and down. Façades were all in white marvel, big windows and doors in clear green and blue tones. Such a beautiful place that I think I have never seen in real life. This dream is what brought me to your channel. Thanks for sharing beautiful!!!

Oh no you missed the Horta building that houses the comic book museum. It’s amazing from the inside.

@ReganShorter 2 жыл бұрын

I did miss it! I did some of the Comic Book walk around the city the day before, but sadly didn't visit the museum. I walked around the Ixelles area, so definitely something to add to my list for the next time we visit!

@@ReganShorter The building is better than the museum. 😉
