Over the centuries, brussels expanded beyond the old city walls, gradually absorbing neighbouring towns and villages. These outlying communes – such as Ixelles, Saint-Gilles and Anderlecht – still retain their distinctive characters. As a result, there is huge variety across Outer Brussels. An excellent public transport system makes it easy to scoot around these suburbs, and the highlights listed here are definitely worth the journey.
Be sure to see the medieval church treasures in the Salle aux Trésors of the Musées Royaux d’Art et d’Histoire For more on Belgian artists (see Belgian Artists)-
Visit the home of the famous Belgian surrealist, Rene Magritte, and if you are lucky and time your visit well you may even have the tour guide to yourself.
