AAAH... the joys of the Google.com search engine!
Here to whet your appetite about the touristic joys of Brussells are 2 websites depicting the legendary Mannequin De Pis. Do bear in mind there are "leading" restaurants, and indeed a beer named after this cultural icon, and historic piece of sculpture .. I swear that is true!
Click on these and "enjoy"! PS .. neither website is mine or anything to do with me, but the first one kinda sums up my view! The person who posted the pissing statue pics says later on:
"Belgium is generally considered so uninteresting, that competitions to think up interesting things about the country are farcical in their brevity. Chocolate, lace, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and Tin-Tin, and that's it, folks - same time next year. Equally, Brussels is not considered a top tourist destination. The only reason I went was a free air ticket. "
