Considering the Tulip Inn Antwerp Astoria in Antwerp?

sit on one of the benches... by Pegasus74
sit on one of the benches facing the ornate Renaissance Town Hall and elaborately gabled guild houses, which together complement the cobbled Grote Markt (or Grand Place). The spectacular Brabo fountain planted in the heart of the square draws anyone closer to it to scrutinize its beauty. And because its base is sloped a little, the water re-enters its arteries to be pumped out again. This way the square is wetted only a small portion surrounding the fountain. Stuck to one of the few benches, I was fascinated by the activities around this heart - scout groups having a game or two, a pair of kids bicycling through sprinkling waters, horse carriages entering and re-entering the square, the locals walking their dogs and tour guides explaining to his/her group what each attraction represent. Once in a while I'd be 'disturbed' to be someones' photographer.
