The Royal Palace of Brussels (Palais Royal) is another place to visit whilst in the city. It is the official Palace of the King and Queen of the Belgians however, it is not used as a royal residence.
This one reminded us of Buckingham Palace in London and of the the Royal Palace in Madrid. Every summer, the Royal Palace opens its doors to the public. If you are lucky enough to visit, you can see some of the splendid rooms of the palace.
Brussels is a great capital city and definitely worth visiting. It’s a popular destination for young adults and families and offers a range of attractions and activities to suit any age group and personal preferences.

The Royal Palace opens its doors to the public. From 23 July to 28 August, the palace can be visited free of charge, except on Mondays. It’s worth the visit. Of course, you can also visit some other tourist spots in Brussels like the Atomium.

The Royal Palace
The Royal Palace of Brussels is the official palace of the King and Queen of the Belgians in the centre of the nation's capital Brussels. However it is not used as a royal residence, as the king and his family live in the Royal Palace of Laeken on the outskirts of Brussels. The facade existing today was only built after 1900 on the initiative of King Leopold II. The first nucleus of the present-day building dates from the end of the 18th century. However, the grounds on which the palace stands were once part of the Coudenberg Palace a very old palatial complex that dated back to the Middle Ages. The first building on the Coudenberg hill was constructed between the second half of the 11th and first half of the 12th century. At that time it probably looked like a fortified castle forming a part of the fortifications of the city of Brussels. It was the home of the Dukes of Brabant who also resided in the nearby city of Leuven and in the Castle of Tervuren. In the following centuries it was rebuilt, extended and improved in line with the increased prestige of the Dukes of Brabant and their successors; the Dukes of Burgundy, the Emperor Charles V, the Archduke Albert of Austria and Infanta Isabel of Spain and successive Governors of the Habsburg Netherlands.

The Royal Palace
Located in the heart of the city, no trip to Brussels can be concluded without a visit to the royal palace. I mean what a magnificent structure and symbol of elegance in Brussels. The architecture is beautiful. The passages and facades of this palace radiate with grandeur.
I was glad there was a self guided tour. My audio guide gave some wonderful insights on the life of the royal family. One after another each corner, each room is full of royal design. The palace has huge and equally wonderful gardens.
My favourite was the coronation room. Great spots for pictures from the outside. This area in general is very pretty and walkable. If you are visiting the palace don't miss out on the Parc de Brussels. It is gorgeous too.

The entrance to the palace is free, which is fantastic considering the rich history and stunning architecture you'll see inside.
The palace itself is beautifully decorated, with opulent rooms and exquisite furnishings that transport you back in time. I especially enjoyed the guided tour, which was informative and brought the history of the Belgian monarchy to life. 🌟
After touring the palace, I strolled through the nearby Brussels Park, which is perfect for a leisurely walk or a picnic. The area around the palace is also filled with charming cafes and shops, making it easy to spend a whole day exploring.

Palace of Justice Brussels 🇧🇪
#thingstodo
Palace of Justice is one of the iconic buildings in Brussels and this is also the most important court building in Belgium. When I looked at Inside of the court , the architecture really captured my attention. It looks well-designed and beautifully crafted. The main colour of inside is white and it made of marble and gold. They look absolutely stunning and during the sunset time, the colour of the building outside even look more attractive!
