Lots of Amercians say Belgium cities are old an gritty. Streets are to narrow and dirty... But hey what would you expect when you go to Europe? Large wide 4 lane streets like US downtowns? SO thanks for saying that!

European market places are what make these cities so uniquely beautiful. Its the central meeting place and hive of activities. I simply love them.
