City Reviews

Look what other people said about 'The Diamond City':

• "Antwerp is Belgium's best-kept secret" (Daily Mail)

• "Diamonds, Rubens, waffles and contemporary fashion in this cosmopolitan Belgian city. Belgium's hip and sophisticated second city is only three hours from London and offers some of the best European art, as well as shopping, food and architecture. The city hosts a thriving fashion and design movement." (The Independant)

• "Cradle of Belgian creative talent, one of the largest ports in the world, and centre of the global diamond trade, Antwerp has preserved the charm of the old Flemish towns. It is a genuine pleasure to wander through the narrow alleys and expansive squares of the old town. The numerous historic monuments, theatres, fashion shops, trendy restaurants and art galleries give it a unique charm." (Michelin Guide)

If this would be your first time to Flanders in Belgium, consider to leave the beaten track of visiting Brussels and Bruges, and visit 'The Diamond City'. If you have already been to Brussels and Bruges, well...then this is your next destination in Belgium. You'll love it!
