ANTWERP / BELGIUM / THE HUMAN SCALE
Antwerp is distinctly Belgian. Situated in-between two strong and dominant neighbours – Germany and France – the country has been invaded more times than they can count.
As a strategic response, the Belgians have developed a strange and surreal kind of humour, noticeable in the everyday as a subtle quirkiness.
BOULEVARD LEOPOLD / ANTWERP / BELGIUM
This bed-and-breakfast is housed in a traditional three-story, 19th century townhouse, with only three rooms and two suites. Located in the orthodox Jewish district, it is within comfortable walking distance from the city centre.
MAS / ANTWERP / BELGIUM
The aim of the MAS is to tell the story of Antwerp, and of how this city connects with the surrounding world, ranging from the history of Antwerp as a centre of international trade and shipping to outlining how Antwerp became an important European hub for art and culture.
