Nice museum in the centre of the old town. Cheap entry and enough in there to keep you in for a hour or two. Note they have lots of costumes that the Manneken Pis Sculpture wears which are interesting

MIM has really hit the musical nail on the head with this concept. A great collection of musical instruments from throughout the world and across the ages that come alive when you stand near them.

This museum houses several different classifications of art divided into easy bites. You can buy a combo ticket or to just the bit you'd like to see. I like the Old Masters and the Magritte Museums.

Drinks & Nightlife

The place used to be a central location once, at that time being the largest island on river Zenne. Nowadays channels are buried, but the place is still very lively, fresh and features some good bars.
