Celebrate your family in Antwerp!


15th May is the International Day of Families, an initiative of the United Nations that wants to emphasize the importance of family. We believe as a family it's important to spend (quality) time together. And what's a better way to bond than visiting a great city, where every member can find something he or she likes? We chose to give you a small virtual guided tour through Antwerp, the city we know best!





This first picture was taken at FelixPakhuis (translation: Warehouse of Felix). It's a trendy eating and drinking place near the wharfs in the north of the city, that has different concepts in different rooms. Everyone can easily find something that he or she likes, which makes this warehouse very family friendly :)   



After a quick refreshment or a full lunch it's worth the effort to pay a visit to 'Museum aan de Stroom' or just MAS. Not only a beautiful building, but also a place where you can learn more about untold stories of Antwerp, its river and its port.






If you have small children, you should definitely take them to Park Spoor Noord. Water fountains bring them refreshment on hot summer days and a playground keeps your toddlers busy at all times, so that you can have a drink in the supercool Cargo Bar. Highly recommended!

Apart from the places we discussed here, there are of course tons of other must-see spots in the Harbour City: Het Steen, Het Modemuseum (the Fashion Museum), the Cathedral and many more. For more tourist information, visit the Visit Antwerp website.

If you ever make it to our Home City: enjoy your stay! If you don't: enjoy the pictures ;)

See you next week!
