    Best day trip from Brussels (other than Brugge)?
    30 Mar 2009, 19:26

    We have a day already booked to go to Brugge, so if we feel up to it we were considering: Ghent, Antwerp or Lille? Any other choices?

    What is your vote?

    Antwerp, but Ghent isn't all that big so you can stop there on the way back if you want. It's very pretty in the evening.

    ypres, leuven and mechelen

    These are all good for walking around from the train stations? Which ones do you like and why?

    Look here : tripadvisor.com/Attractions-g188634-Activiti…

    Ypres/Ieper is fascinating if you are interested in WWI, for instance.
