Feast your eyes on some of the most splendid examples of the Art Nouveau movement in Brussels. This walk follows a swathe of urban sprawl through St. Gilles and Ixelles, two communities that boast various buildings in the sumptuous and organic architecture that is Art Nouveau. Drink in the details of facades and interiors designed by Horta, Hankar, Brunfaut, Blerot and others. And along the way, you'll get a taste of authentic Brussels.
