La Grand Place - joyous and central, the heart of the Belgian capital and the Ilot Sacré quarter - dates back to the end of the 17th century. With Field Marshall Villeroy having destroyed the old square in 1695 on the orders of Louis 14th, it was rebuilt in the following years thanks to the perseverance of local businesses, who created this magnificent ensemble of which the people of Brussels are so proud.

Ou à ma comparaison avec la Grand-Place de Bruges ? Toutefois, j'en garde un très bon souvenir et l'admirer depuis la table d'un bon restaurant ajoute à son charme et à sa beauté !
