After the Atomium we headed back to central Brussels for a spot of lunch.


We also took a last chance to check out some of the chocolate shops.


We also returned back the Grande Place, which isn't quite as spectacular by day as it is at night.


It wasn't until I got back that I found out that this museum contains a floor with all the costumes the Manekin Pis has worn. That's a shame because I would have like to see that.


Speaking of peeing statues. I'd like to say where this statue is located, but the truth is we got a bit lost, so I don't know where this is.


Another building we found was the chocolate museum. I had been keeping an eye out for this all week, and only came across it accidentally with a couple of hours to go. It's just off the Grande Place. Down a road right in the corner that goes towards the Manekin Pis.


The best part is the demonstration rooms, where they show you how some of the handmade chocolates are made. There are also some chocolate related exhibitions.


This room looks at the science of chocolate, apparently dark chocolate is good for you.


There's also a number of sculptures which are made out of chocolate.


Finally we took one last chance to visit the Manekin Pis before heading over to the Euro Star station to get a train back home.
