Beautiful old charm ( story has it the architect commited suicide due to a minor misalligned entrance ) lit at night gives everything new appearance as day does true justice to its Beauty ! The entire courtyard around the City hall is an old trade building to represent the trade it covered . Cobble stone streets add to its rustic atmosphere . Pictires dont do it justice however I tried . A must see while in Europe . Belgium is full of history and 2 days didn’t seem to show me all I wanted ! Never got to explore the museums !.

Such a beautiful location! It was really easy to find and the views were so lovely. My husband and I actually visited it during the day and at night and loved the night view. There were so many tours we wished we were part of a group, but maybe for next time.

I had stopover in BRU airport for 3 hrs, i took the train to the city center and was amazed by the beauty of the Grand Place. Same day i bought tickets for me and my wife to come back to Brussels. We were lucky, when we came back it had purple lights on. That day there was not much rain. We enjoyed walking. We walked around several streets and came back - still beautiful ))))

This central square is spectacular. On all sides are beautifully maintained old guild houses. Looks great during the day, but come back at night when it sparkles with all the floodlights. Be prepared for lots of people as this is ground zero for tourism. Tourist restaurants and bars all around. Just beautifu.

Just loved my visit to La Grand Place and surrounding area. It is the center of Brussels and iconic, so pretty much a required stop if you visit Brussels. I was fortunate to be here in the holidays and saw the fantastic light show. The buildings are ancient and the history of the Grande Place is interesting. The restaurants in the Place afford an opportunity for people watching, especially in more temperate weather.

Absolutely wonderful precursor to Christmas. Full of history, colour, life and fun! The buildings are amazing and so well maintained. The square had a free light show on the hour, in the evening, which was glorious to experience. Fabulous place.

Truly a beautiful square. All the buildings were stunning and lavished with gold decals. Personally, I believe this to be a must-see in Brussels as the architecture is the crème de la crème of Belgian architecture in my humble inexperienced opinion.

The Grand Place is an amazing place to create lovely private photo sessions to have and remember for years to come. The Grand Place it was very near to my hotel where i stayed, the Bedford Hotel Every time of the year, The Grand Place is a place to be and many things to do.They have several very nice shops where you can get almost anything you might need at very good prices as well.Soaps, home care, and the best chocolates ever. I will visit again on my next trip around for sure.

An absolutely beautiful square, equally stunning day or night. A great place for amazing photos. The various streets leading off the square are packed with restaurants, shops, takeaways, etc. A must see when in Brussels.

Finally took our long awaited trip to Belgium. Visited the Grand Place. Center of Brussels, really cool architecture and plenty of shops (chocolate/waffle/fries) around. Was a really cool place to visit and has plenty of nice places around to eat and shop.
