Belgium....round 2: Antwerpen

Antwerp: it is a beautiful place, but out of the four cities it was my least favorite. Again, it was gorgeous and a really great place to walk around.
Antwerp train station from the outside. The colorful post definitely make it more fun.
Inside train station
Clock in train station. It reminds me of central station in New York city, but a smaller version of it.
Antwerp's town hall in Grote Markt
Eglise St. Jacobskerk
Cathedral Sint Carolus
A great old church
Antwerp's castle and very odd statue. I have no idea what this statue is about....haha!

This gorgeous walking path is right next to the castle. Isn't fall just beautiful?
The first skyscraper in all of Europe...not very tall.
Clock tower in Borromerskert square.

View of the castle and other medieval buildings behind it...this is what I LOVE about Europe!
Carriage rides through the city.
Beautiful street

Two cities down, two more to go...
