A Brukselbinnenstebuiten guide will lead you on a discovery tour around Globe Aroma, an artistic hub situated next to the Nouveau Marché aux Grains. This area was once part of the Jericho Monastery from the 15th to the 18th century. After the monastery’s dissolution in 1783, the city developed a spacious square in a classicist style to replace the old, cramped Grain Market located slightly further away. Today, this square, with its grand plane trees and basketball court, is a popular gathering spot for the young people of the Dansaert district. Nearby, you’ll find fashion boutiques, several schools, and trendy cafés. Just around the corner, the social housing towers known as ‘les 5 blocs’ have been vacant for some time, and local residents are watching the new development plans with growing concern.

This tour takes place right after the showcase concert by Asad Qizilbash.
