Antwerp

One day isn’t really enough to explore Antwerp. This vibrant city combines culture, history, and modern architecture, and is just a short distance from the park.

Wander through the centuries-old city center and admire iconic landmarks such as the Plantin-Moretus Museum (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), the impressive Cathedral of Our Lady, and St. James’s Church —all within walking distance of each other.

There’s plenty to do for families, too. Visit the animals at Antwerp Zoo or discover the world of chocolate at Chocolate Nation, Belgium’s largest chocolate museum.

Prefer something typically Belgian? Go for a beer tasting at the Antwerp Brewing Company and learn all about the local beer culture.
