Discover the soul of Brussels with this guide to 30 exceptional experiences that will unlock the hidden doors of the city.

Inside Soul of Brussels:

You've seen the Atomium and the Manneken Pis. But if we really want to experience the true essence of Brussels, where do we go? Soul of Brussels is your guide to the best of what this city really is right now – and how it’s evolving. 

Celebrating both the old and the new, we’ll meet the guardians of the city’s authentic heritage and talk with the bright young things who are building its future. We’ll eat at hidden restaurants, explore the city’s long-forgotten corners, fall asleep in an old meeting house and gorge on transcendent pralines and divine chips.

Each guide in the “Soul of” collection includes: 

-         the 30 best experiences a city has to offer

-         interviews with those who give the city its spirit

-         original illustrations that capture the city’s soul

Don’t miss - Hidden inside these guides, you will always find a very secret location, carefully selected, waiting to be discovered. Are you up for a challenge?

The ‘Soul of’ guides are a new approach to the art of travel, full of secret places and unforgettable experiences. Each place holds the promise of an exceptional moment, with something for every taste and budget.
