Grote Markt or Grande Place (BRUSSELS)

The following pictures are taken on 17th July 2003. I hope you can enjoy through them the Central Square of Brussels, called "GROTE MARKT" in Dutch and "GRANDE PLACE" in French. This was and still remains the heart of Brussels. To my mind here you can find the best preserved medieval architecture of Brussels.For some nightshots of the Grand-Place click: BRUSSELS,... by night! http://www.worldisround.com/articles/20871/index.html
