City in Belgium

Antwerp

4 things to see

Antwerp is Belgium’s fashion and diamond capital, and its compact old town is free to wander, from the guild-house squares to the riverfront. The grand central station and the cobbled Grote Markt cost nothing to admire, and cozy local pubs pour affordable Flemish beer. Fast, cheap trains make it an easy budget pairing with Ghent, Bruges, or Brussels, so you can base in one and day-trip the rest.
