A Sunday market day in Brussels
Unlike many other large cities Brussels is an extremely lively metropolis on Sunday mornings. Colourful and characterful markets give rise to a huge movement of people and plenty of zest. The markets attract many tourists among their visitors because of their unique character. A brief summary:

Today more than ever, a walk along the Zavel Antique and Book Market is like taking a trip into a timeless dimension, where he evidence of the past seems to bring our lost forefathers to life. The Zavel is in the centre of Brussels and the market is held every Sunday from 09.00 to 13.00.

Not too far from the Zavel lies the well-known folksy area of Marollen. A jumble and flea market is held here every Sunday morning from 07.00 to 12.00 on Vossen Square.
