Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly

Brussels is underrated as a solo destination — the Grand Place (one of Europe's most beautiful squares) is stunning at any time of day, the comic strip museum is genuinely fun solo, and the Belgian beer culture makes solo bar-sitting completely normal. The Ixelles neighbourhood has excellent independent restaurants. The EU Quarter is fascinating for geopolitics enthusiasts. Day trips to Ghent and Bruges are easy by train.
