Brussels: The Sheroes' Walking Tour

5. Brussels: The Sheroes' Walking Tour

Discover why Belgium has been marked by the presence of women who triumphed in history despite all the inconveniences and obstacles they encountered along the way. Brussels tells of the advancement of female protagonists and their role in the development of the country. Meet in one of the most coveted locations in the European capital from the 12th to the 18th century: the Royal Court Quarter. During the walk, admire the power of the queens to the masses of the Protestant shepherdesses and the Guardians of the Holy Sepulcher. Go down towards the historical center from the Mont des Arts (Mount of Arts). This is a privileged spot in the city for photography and attracts everyone's attention. Learn the relationship of women workers with the famous Expo 58 Atomium sculpture, a signature of Brussels. Discover the history of the little girl statue, Jeanneke Pis, half-hidden in the privacy of a small alley, who is pissing in full view of prying eyes. Go to the Théâtre La Monnaie, the home of an explosion of revolutionary revolts in the 19th century. Learn about the role of women in conflicts such as Belgian independence and the world wars. Lastly, see Rue Neuve where some girls from Karl Marx family lived in exile.

I decided to buy the 72h Brussels Card (museums + transport) through this app as we had to spend exactly 3 days in Brussels. We had made a calculation of the attractions we wanted to see + transport and in fact it was much more convenient to do the map. I highly recommend doing it 1) in 3 days you can really visit many museums 2) because the vehicles work perfectly and doing the day is not convenient, we have practically always used them knowing that we have included them !! The only flaw is that you have to go to the information center in Grand Place and show your voucher, from there they will print QR codes to be used in each museum indicated. As for transport: you must always go to the info center in Grand Place, they will print a 6-digit code to be entered in the red "GO TICKET" machines that you find at each bus / tram stop or in the metro, they will print the transport pass, passing it on the first vehicle will be activated!

I ordered a 72-hour card for each of us and I have to say that it was really worth it. We didn't have to pay an entrance fee anywhere and visited 3 museums and/or churches per day - including those that aren't even listed here. And when it comes to public transport - it couldn't be easier and is valid everywhere, whether bus, tram or metro. When scanning, you even get the remaining term of the card displayed. In general, public transport in Brussels - many a person could learn a lesson here. Clean and air-conditioned!!! The only tiny drawback - we first found out how activation via Go machines works via the City Card app and not from the staff when redeeming the voucher on site, so we only got more slips of paper with the necessary QR codes. And these Go machines are only at major hubs. You should already know that.

I purchased the 24-hour card and having visited 5 museums on that day, the convenience was very high as 3 was the minimum number of museums to visit to compensate for the cost of the card

Amazing visit with sounds and lights and an incredible panoramic view of Brussels, in this atypical monument. To do absolutely.

Well worth the price, you will get your money's worth on it
