St Michael and St Gudula Cathedral

The Brussels Cathedral, officially called the Cathedral of St. Michael and St. Gudula, is one of the most important monuments in Brussels. Don’t let the opportunity to see it pass you by.
The Cathedral of St Michael and St Gudula (Cathédrale Saint-Michel et Sainte-Gudule) is one of the most important landmarks in Brussels.

It was built in a Gothic style at the beginning of the thirteenth century on the foundations of a Romanesque church established in the eleventh century. The actual cathedral took 300 hundred years to complete. It is perfectly conserved because between 1983 and 1989 it was completely restored.

To the right of the central nave is a beautiful Baroque pulpit carved out of wood from 1699, as well as the original oak confessionals from the seventeenth century. The enormous statues located on the temple’s columns and some of the stained-glass windows are worth highlighting. Another stunning part of the Cathedral is the imposing organ designed by Grenzing with over 4.000 pipes and 4 keyboards.

MIM — MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS MUSEUM

The collection of MIM — MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS MUSEUM presents more than 1,100 historical and modern musical instruments, one of the richest in the world.

In a beautifully restored complex in Brussels, of which one part is Art Nouveau and Neoclassical in design, the 1100 most interesting instruments are assembled in 4 galleries, enhanced by images and text panels. The audio & video guide completes the experience with the sounds of the instruments on display. The MIM also has a concert hall, a space for workshops (for groups and by reservation only), a museum shop, a library and a rooftop restaurant, from where the breathtaking view over the city gives a unique flavour to the menu.

Costa Rica is a wonderland of natural attractions, with volcanoes, beaches, cloud forests, and unique wildlife. This is a country that appeals as much to birdwatchers and luxury focused travellers as it does to surfers and backpackers. The busy city of San Jose is home to the country’s best museums and lovely squares, but the real treasures lie beyond the capital, in the forests and small coastal villages. Endless stretches of beach line the Pacific Coast, with small towns that cater to surfers and sun seekers. Inland, the forest-covered mountains offer their own adventures, from volcanoes and waterfalls to ziplining and extraordinary wildlife viewing. Costa Rica also has shoreline on the Caribbean.
