Brussels is the capital of Belgium. It is also famous being the the de facto capital of the European Union (EU). The city is beautiful  but a day visit  is not enough  to see everything.  I and a friend from the US had a trip in this city last summer 2010. That was my first visit and I hope to visit it again in the future.

Among the sights we visited  are the Grand Place, Atomium, the Manneken Pis, European Quarter, the Royal Palace of Brussels,  the Stock Exchange and some other more.
