Comics on the streets of Brussels

Standard

Throughout the week – Monday, 29-July-2024, through Saturday, 03-Aug-2024


In my earlier post about the Brussels Comic Book Museum, I mentioned that Brussels is a city of comics. Art, murals, paintings, all of it adorns the streets… making for an absolutely amazing environment to walk around and explore.

Interestingly enough, I walked around and explored that amazing environment quite extensively. I found it absolutely glorious; and I hope that you, my dear readers, will as well.

Without further ado… may I present my favorites of… Brussels street art:

Teliskivi neighborhood – the land of beautiful murals!

On my way to the photography museum in Tallinn, I found one of the most beautiful neighborhoods that I’ve seen to date on my adventures. Everywhere I looked there were beautiful murals, neat shops, and little areas to sit and relax – families eating, kids playing, bros rocking basketball and badminton and other kinds of hip lawn games.

Basically, this was gentrification paradise.

To be honest, it was absolutely gorgeous and probably something like where I’ll hopefully end up living in Dublin. I know, I know, I don’t know if I’m cool enough to hang out with the tech bros who make this place their home, but… I’ll try, okay? It looked so fun to live here! Getting to see pretty murals every day, while eating at cool hip restaurants that you can easily walk to? All while being near a train station?

Yeah, it was fun to wander around. Especially with a gelato cone that I clearly had to get. Heck yeah, Rocky Road!
