Brussels, the Fashionable Districts

Brussels is a surprising city!

Warm and inviting, tourists love it as much the people who live here. It has always been and will always be a multicultural city, a welcoming meeting place for original, talented creatives admired by their peers, who find this lively and surreal capital a wonderful place to live and work.

Before falling under its spell, many of them initially chose to come to Brussels for its internationally renowned art schools, such as the exceptional La Cambre, or, for design, Saint-Luc, the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts, the CAD or the Hoge School Sint-Lukas.
