Atomium

Explore the Atomium's magnificent architecture, a landmark that has become synonymous with Brussels's cityscape. This grandiose structure captures the essence of the Atomic Age's aspirations, magnifying the shape of an iron crystal cell by an astonishing 165 billion times. Erected for Expo 58, the 1958 Brussels World's Fair, it looms at 102 meters, an engineering marvel featuring nine spheres clad in gleaming stainless steel, interconnected by a series of tubes.

The permanent exhibit saluting Expo 58 offers a cultural throwback, while the highest sphere grants a panoramic vista that's simply unmatched - a dream location for photographers and skyline seekers alike.

For those wishing to add a culinary chapter to their visit, an on-site restaurant proposes delightful cuisine coupled with aerial views. Surrounding parklands provide a tranquil setting for leisurely walking or picnicking, ideal for both relaxation and family time.…
