Standing in the middle of this place is amazing with all this great structures around you. There are lots of people but its worth being there. the area is also sorrounded by different shops where you can get the famous Belgian chocolates. I really enjoyed my visit there.

Too many tourists to really get the atmosphere, go early before they arrive.

The crush of tourists and some construction took away from the pleasure of the area.

Great historical significance, architecture makes you want to just stand there and stare. You can't go to Brussels without appreciating the magnificence of the Grand Place.

Typical tourist tat around the Grand Place. Sometimes very crowded. BUT ... architecture and buildings are a "must see".
