Kanal District

Along the canal, Quai des Péniches has established itself as one of Brussels; most innovative cultural and commercial hubs. This neighbourhood has transformed into an ever-evolving urban experience. Here you’ll find hybrid projects combining culture, gastronomy and community initiatives – including restaurants, shops, yoga and recording studios, grocery stores and so much more. Surprises await at every turn: a quirky café here, an art gallery there, and just after that, a Sunday market brimming with fresh produce. Establishments welcome food lovers into a relaxed, creative atmosphere, complete with long communal tables, waterside terraces, concerts and other outdoor events. This vibrant neighbourhood gives Brussels a truly contemporary feel.
