Why we love Brussels: Grandeur is part of the normal

In Brussels, grandeur is part of the normal, says Annie who runs a blog and Instagram account @montgomeryfest. Annie used to live in our city and now often comes. We loved the comment that she made during her last visit to Brussels:

“The view when you’re walking through the centre and look down the side streets that lead to the Grand Place blows me away every. single. time. and yet, it’s such a normal, everyday walk that was so part of my routine. That’s one of the reasons why Brussels is so special…that the grandeur is part of the normal.”
