I found the cheapest flights from Finland to Egypt through Brussels, and because I have never earlier visited Belgium, I extended my stopover in Brussels and stayed there one whole day. Because of the public transport strike I walked to the Hostel Louise for 1 hour 15 minutes.
Autoworld
I went to see Autoworld Brussels with a collection of 250 cars.
Military museum
I went to Military museum, because I wanted to see the panorama from the triumphal arch, but because of the rainy weather I was not allowed to do so.
Manneken pis
Grande Place – Grote Markt
Manneken Pis on toinen Brysselin tunnus, tosi pieni patsas, joka tällä kertaa oli puettuna. Matkamuisto- ja suklaakaupat olivat pullollaan Manneken Pis -kamaa.

Grande Place – Grote Markt
I visited Grande Place two times, both at daytime and at late evening. Central, one of the three main railway stations, is located wery close to Grote Markt.

Atomium
In the end of the day I went watching Atomium from outside (metro Heysel). You wouldn’t guess, that this futuristic looking building was built already in 1958.
