Few European cities reward an evening stroll quite like Brussels. Start the evening in Sainte-Catherine, making a stop for a light snack and a cold beer before heading south through the Bourse quarter. Slip through the Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert, the glass arcade glows beautifully after dark, then follow the cobbled lanes downhill into the Lower Town. You'll sense the Grand-Place before you see it: a warm golden pulse at the end of the street. Then the lane opens up, and there it is, the gilded guild houses blazing against the night sky. As your evening comes to an end, return to your hotel at your leisure.
