Dated back to the 18th century and situated in the heart of Brussels, this attraction offers you an insight into the history of this beautiful city. Both lines start at Bus Stop 1, situated at the Central Station and you can hop-on and hop-off between the two lines whenever you want!

The Blue Line is packed full of exciting places and activities! Hop-off at Rogier, Bus Stop 2 if you fancy a bit of shopping at Botanique mall, or if you prefer to stay outdoors, hop-off at the Royal Greenhouses of Laeken to view the English Gothic style buildings. Hop-on again to continue your trip and visit Atomium, Brussels' - most bizarre tourist attraction, the Ren Magritte Museum - the house of the artist, or maybe the Koekelberg Basilica - the fifth largest church in the world.
