    The Atomium as the Symbol of Brussels

    An example of what it means when art meets architecture

    There are few buildings that can capture the imagination of visitors of all ages and backgrounds. By using fantastical yet familiar elements to enable a sense of wonder on the part of viewers from across the world, the Atomium, sitting in the northwest area of central Brussels in Belgium, is one of those buildings.

    The Atomium is a giant model of a unit cell of an iron crystal, with each sphere of the structure symbolizing an atom. Completed in 1958 as a unique combination of art and architecture, it has somehow been able to endure with one foot in the past and one in the future. The structure attracts over 600,000 visitors every year and in the process has become one of the national symbols of Belgium.

    The Cinquantenaire (50th anniversary) site is comprised of a vast set of gardens dotted with monuments and museums. It is dominated by a triumphal arch with three arches. The park hosts numerous activities throughout the year: events, celebrations, firework displays, sporting events, concerts, etc.

    This place of interest was built in 1880 for the 50th anniversary of the independence of Belgium. The broad pathways lead to the Pavilion of Human Passions designed by Victor Horta, the Royal Museum of the Armed Forces & Military History, the Royal Museums of Art and History and to Autoworld. At the top of the three triumphal arches there’s a bronze quadriga and an unbeatable sweeping view over the whole of Brussels.

    Exploring the area of European institutions, we will emerge in the why and how Brussels is considered as the capital city of the EU. We will also get a completely different perspective passing by the African neighborhood and learning about the dark and unknown history of the Belgian colonial past.

      Brussels truly captivated us with its rich cultural tapestry and stunning landmarks. We particularly loved visiting the Grand Place, where the intricate architecture left us in awe. However, the pace felt a bit rushed at times, and we wished we could have lingered longer at some spots.

      Exploring Brussels in Belgium with a private guide was a fantastic way to immerse ourselves in the city’s rich culture and stunning landmarks. We particularly loved wandering through the historic Grand Place, where our guide shared fascinating stories that brought the architecture to life. While the pace felt a bit rushed at times, we still discovered so much and left with a deeper appreciation for this vibrant city.

      We had a lovely time discovering the culture and landmarks of Brussels, especially marveling at the grandeur of the Grand Place. The guide was knowledgeable and engaging, though we wished the pace had been a bit quicker to see more sights in our private tour.
