Free day in Brussels today. Decided to head out of town (only 5 miles) to see the Atomium.
Dont know how they managed to hide this massive building but you dont really see it until you're almost on top of it. It's really impressive though, very futuristic considering when it was built and definitely worth a visit.
Back to Brussels for a stroll around the shops and buildings in the afternoon. We made our way to the Grand Square which is quite beautiful, it has this effect on you where you just want to stand and stare at the buildings, people were just mesmerised by it.
One side of the square was being refurbished and had scaffold up but they had cleverly disguised it by fixing a massive screen print of how the buildings should look to the scaffold so as not to spoil the view.
Decided to have some lunch in the square to enjoy the view then on to more streets to look at the shops.
