Brussels, Belgium
As the seat of the EU, Brussels is known as the “capital of Europe,” and its significance as a centre of
international governance and business, not to mention accessible location, makes Belgium’s capital a natural
place to meet. World-famous for its chocolate, waffles, and beer and admired for its museums and art galleries,
Brussels has plenty to rival Europe’s major capitals but often at more reasonable prices.
