If the weather is nice and you fancy a beer outside, we highly recommend visiting Kassa 4. Just a few minutes walk from the hotel, you can sit and enjoy a drink and the sun. Belgium is known for their beer, so we recommend asking the staff for their recommendations. You won&#8217;t be disappointed! 



They also serve food, so here you can get the full experience.

Ramen is always a good idea! Takumi is a chain that you can find in several places in Antwerp and Brussels. They serve traditional dishes that are freshly prepared by the kitchen. Their noodles are actually imported from Japan in order to maintain an authentic taste experience. We recommend the Chicken Shio Ramen, with dumplings and edamame beans on the side! Also, when in Belgium, add a beer to your order as well.

I mean, there is always room for dessert, right? If you are in Antwerp, Quetzal is definitely the best option. They offer a wide variety of chocolate-based ice cream, fondue, brownies, hot beverages, and more. Its hard to recommend just one thing, but if you&#8217;re a sucker for hot chocolate cakes, this is one of the best. Go for the &#8220;intense&#8221; choice. You will not be disappointed!

If you went to Antwerp and did not pass by the Cathedral of Our Lady, you are missing out! Its gothic style is a milestone in the history of architecture. 



To add to the cathedral&#8217;s beauty, there are unique stained-glass windows, as well as works of Peter Paul Rubens. They were taken by Napoleon and returned in 1918. In the back of the cathedral you will find the statue of orphan Nello and his dog Patrache. It is based on the novel A Dog in Flanders, a touching story about friendship and loyalty (which we also recommend you read).

Right by the central station you will find the Antwerp Zoo. Established in 1843, it is the oldest zoo in Belgium and is home to 8 000 exotic animals from all over the world. 



Inside the zoo, it is so peaceful you&#8217;ll forget you&#8217;re in the center of the city. Our favorite area has to be the Butterfly Garden, an immersive area with more than 600 flying beauties. You can take a stroll in the zoo but also engage in different activities, such as talks by keepers, or watch scuba divers in the reef aquarium.



Antwerp Zoo is open all days of the year, from 10:00-18:00. The zoo is only a 9-minute walk away from the Central Station and Chocolate Nation.

This image shows a meerkat, perched atop a log in an outdoor setting. The meerkat is standing on its hind legs with its front paws resting on the log and its snout pointed forward.

During your tour through the museum, you will find chocolate traditions, history, brands, products, and innovations that have built its worldwide reputation. Chocolate Nation is only 6 minutes away by foot from our hotel!

This is not only the heart of the old town of Antwerp. De Grote Markt is also the perfect place to kickstart your walking tour through the historical quarter. 



The &#8220;Big Market&#8221; is home to the city hall of Antwerp, built in the 16th century in the Renaissance style; to the Brabo Fountain, which represents the tale that gives the name to the city, as well to several bars and their &#8220;terraces.&#8221; On sunny days, nothing is better than a Belgian beer and snacks at one of the terraces!

In the foreground on the image there is a statue of a man in a front of a tall building. The building is decorated with gold details and flags. A golden statue of a bird can be seen at the top of the building.

What used to be the fortification&#8217;s entrance in Antwerp nowadays works as a visitor center and cruise terminal.

The Meir street, which once used to be an avenue with a canal, connects Citybox to the heart of town. It is also one of the most important shopping streets in all of Belgium. Besides several international brands, you also have historical Rococo buildings such as Stadsfeeszaal, Galeria Inno, and Palace in Meir. 



Shops are usually open from 10:00 until 18:00, from Monday-Saturday, and every first Sunday of the month.

Located by the river Schelde, the Museum aan de Stroom exhibits on each floor a different view of the history of Antwerp and the harbor. It is an important piece economically and historically to the city. On the top floor, you have a 360-degree panorama view of the city and a restaurant. 



Our suggestion: bring some snacks and have a picnic at the promenade area by the MAS and see the sunset! If you need a picnic towel, you can request it at the museum entrance. MAS is 17 minutes away by foot, or you can take the bus number 17.

The river Schelde divides the city into two regions: the center and the Linkerover, where you have a privileged view of the city&#8217;s skyline. Back in 1931, the city decided to, instead of a bridge, build a tunnel only for pedestrians &#8211; and eventually, as of today, bikes. The Sint-Annatunnel keeps our traditional wooden escalators and is a very Instagrammable place! Worth the visit!

Image shows an escalator in a white building with red steps. The interior has an older feel, with woodwork in the center and pictures with wooden frames along the walls.

After 11 years of renovations, the Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp &#8211; known as KMSKA &#8211; is finally open!

Located in the Zuid region of Antwerp, take the opportunity to visit the neighborhood and its trendy cafés and restaurants. To get there, take the tram in one direction, Zuid, and get out at station Antwerpen Montigny. From there, it is only a small 10-minute walk.

Pictured is the "Royal Museum of Fine Art of Antwerp". The building is large and white, with pillars and adornments. On top of the building there are four statues of galloping horses, as well as five flags. In front of the building there is water.
