Brussels Sunday Vacations: Sunset Drink at Mont des Arts

Join us for a relaxed evening drink as we take in one of Brussels’ most breathtaking panoramic views, Mont des Arts, where history and skyline meet.

Once a royal seat of power, now a cultural and architectural bridge between upper and lower Brussels, Mont des Arts offers more than just beauty. From its terraced gardens and grand monuments to the melodic carillon and sweeping views of the city spire, it's a place shaped by kings, artists, and visionaries like Leopold II and René Pechère.

As the sun sets over the city, we’ll raise a glass where Brussels’ past and present come together in one unforgettable spot.
Bring a drink, a friend, and your curiosity.
