Getting There :: Antwerp
Antwerp, Belgium's second city, is a fourty minute train ride from Brussels.
Once at Antwerp Centraal Station you will need to take a tram--#15 or #2--downtown to Groen Plaats.
From here you are ready to explore all of Antwerp's boutiques, street art, cafes, bars, nightclubs, cartooneries, and the Schelde River.
What can't be explored easily on foot can be seen via rental bike.
Antwerp and Brussels are definitely rival cities. The Antwerpians we spoke with see themselves as the antithesis to Brussels. Think New York/LA, or Sydney/Melbourne, on a lesser scale of course, after all, this is Belgium.
