33 days in Antwerp Itinerary

Its reputation as a business-centric city distracts many visitors from the real draws of Antwerp: its historical sites, architectural beauty, and lively culture.

Get out of town with these interesting Antwerp side-trips: Bruges (Cathedrale Saint Sauveur de Bruges, Belfry of Bruges, &more), Huisje van Majutte (in Blankenberge) and Ghent (STAM Ghent City Museum, Spas, &more). There's lots more to do: make a trip to Menin Gate Memorial, explore the different monuments and memorials at Tyne Cot Cemetery, appreciate the extensive heritage of Grote Markt, and examine the collection at Rubens House (Rubenshuis).
