Time for a break
Did you know that most court cases in Belgium are open to the public? Taking a break by attending a murder trial is definitely an option. It’s something different! Prefer something a little lighter? Check out the brand-new Nieuw Zuid park nearby. The trendy neighbourhood also has plenty of coffee spots. Across from the courthouse, you’ll find Café Boekowski, which serves coffee, soup, grilled cheese, and cake. Daily Dose, a hip café, is also worth visiting.
Need an energy boost? Both Colruyt and Carrefour are just around the corner.
