Since June 29, Brussels has a new pedestrian area. All around "La Bourse" (stock market building) no cars are allowed anymore. The big Boulevard Anspach in front of La Bourse has been closed for cars. Now people can walk around in the middle of the street.
I must admit that it took me a little time to dare to walk on the boulevard. But it is wonderful. Now you can sit on benches, there are also Picnic tables, and there is no car noise anymore. It is also good for the preservation of the historical buildings in this area.
Instead of cars, you can take a coach and let you drive around
Benches and picnic tables on the street
No danger for bikes anymore
Now it looks like this
instead of this !

A great improvement and public spaces for people, not cars.
That is much more beautiful and preferable. It might be in convenient to many mitorists but it's for the good of public and most specialy the preservation of old historical cultural buildings.
What a great idea. Brings people into the city.
Great idea for big cities, so much more comfortable to walk around without all the traffic mess.
Can cyclists still use it or is it just for pedestrians?
What a beautiful place and wonderful photos ~ glad you got to walk around!
Happy Week to you,
artmusedog and carol
nice photos. I like the idea of a car free center and just hope it will catch on. my, so far, experiences are not that nice.
It looks like a nice place to take a walk and then sit down and relax.
A great improvement!
