Tour of Brussels-Belgium

in #walkwithme6 years ago

Greetings friends of steemit

Following the tour I did with my husband and some friends a few years ago, I tell you that the 2nd country we visited was Belgium. From this beautiful country we visited 2 cities: Brussels and Bruges. So in this post I will show you only the places we visited in the city of Brussels. and in another publication I will show you Bruges.

Belgium is a very elegant country, the architecture of its buildings is majestic, its capital Brussels, has many beautiful buildings, so our first stop was to go through the Royal Palace.

The current function of the palace is mainly to host events, meetings, ministries and rooms for the invited heads of state. The way to know if the king is in the Royal Palace is when the Belgian flag that presides over the building is raised.

Then we visit the Grand Palace, in this place you will find all the historical center of the city and the most famous buildings among which the houses of the guilds, the Maison du Roi, the Maison des Ducs de Brabant, Le Piegeon and especially City Hall.

The town hall is one of the most famous buildings in Brussels, its facade is full of statues and windows, divided by a bell tower 96 meters high, topped with a statue of St. Michael.

Le Pigeon, was the house in which the French novelist Víctor Hugo stayed during his exile in Belgium, in the year 1852.

Another of the best things about the Grand Palace are the terraces where you can enjoy drinks and share with your friends watching the whole place.

The Saint Hubert galleries are very close to the Grand Place, Completed in 1948 they became the first commercial galleries in Europe. The Saint Hubert galleries are made up of 3 galleries: the King's Gallery, the Queen's Gallery and the Princes Gallery, and can be accessed through 3 different streets.

The Cathedral of San Miguel and Santa Gúdula, in the Gothic style, is the most important Catholic church in Belgium. Construction began in the 13th century and it was not until 1961 that the church acquired the name of cathedral.

Wow, great photos and beautiful churches! I just wanted to tell you that I liked your post.

Thank you so good that you liked it.

Wow I really loved the tour, and all of those churches just blew my mind, I can only imagine how impressive it must have felt to be right there. Thank you @blessed-girl.

Yes, it was very exciting, it's a very elegant country, I liked it a lot ... One question ... why would it be that before I voted up to 90% and gave a vote and now nothing comes out? for example right now I voted in the comments in 94% and it came out "0" ... before it always gave 0.01 from 100% to 90% ... no longer :(

It's because your voting power has decreased. This happens as you vote. It increases as you don't vote: https://steemnow.com/@blessed-girl

Me alegro que ya hayas aprendido a usar el bot de kriptonia usalo sabiamente, por cierto fue un gran viaje muy buenas fotos ojala se repita ....exitos y bendiciones

Gracias, si, fue un gran viaje...ojalá se pueda repetir... Sabes que me registré en Kryptopia, el robot se activó sólo. Me imagino que fue por registrarme y crear la primera tarea, podrías aconsejarme más o menos como es? porque traté de meterme en algunas tareas y decia que solo podía el usuario de la tarea, algo así.... Me imagino que la dinámica es: yo completar tareas y publicar nuevas tareas mias para que otros las hagan... pero no tengo reunido aun monedas... así que me imagino que solo debo hacer tareas, verdad? Cuántas tareas puedo colocar por día? y cuantas tareas puedo realizar por día? Gracias y disculpa la preguntadera...
