Cityscape's afloat!

Spotlights on and surrounding sounds : looks like an opening! Gorgeous.

Drop by and sit down - there are benches all around -, it's now open to all, for a year.

Building(s) for Europe exhibition features large scale model of Brussels

Free exhibition, until 30 Sep 2007, Building(s) for Europe is about the footprint of the European institutions in Brussels.

Besides bits of history and perspective, and very interesting booklets, it features models of several of its buildings in Brussels - can't help think we miss the opportunity to do something great...

Most interesting is the large scale model (about 6 x 6 m) of Brussels on the second floor.




I'm not a fan of the yellow tone given by the translucent films stuck on all windows. And the continuously changing tones in the lighting of the Brussels model is annoying.

It takes place in the former Quartier Léopold/Leopoldswijk station, and has nice long opening hours : 10:00 > 20:00 every day. Until 30 Sep 2007 and free.
