298***11:“It's OK. Brussels is known as the most boring capital in Europe, and the Atomium is one of the most boring attractions. You can see the whole city of Brussels, or you can spend 1 euro to take a closer look at the whole telescope. The rest is a visit full of a sense of the times. After all, it was built decades ago, and it's all classical technology cyberpunk.”

SUNSHINE ONUS:“Brussels peeing child (Manneken Pis) is one of the iconic statues of the Belgian capital Brussels, known as the "First Citizen of Brussels". The peeing child statue is located in the pedestrian area of downtown Brussels, about 53 cm tall, and sits on a marble carved platform about two meters high. The statue was made of bronze, the original bronze statue was created in 1619 by the Belgian sculptor Jerome Duquesnova. There are many versions of legends about the origin and story of peeing children: • Legend 1: In 1142, the Duke of Goth Fred III led the army against foreign enemies, and the Duke put his young son in a cradle and hung on a tree to inspire the army's morale and finally defeated the enemy. • Legend 2: Less than getting up in the middle of the night to pee, seeing the neighbor's house on fire, can not find the water to put out, so with urine to extinguish the fire, rescue the trapped people. • Legend 3: When the ancient Spanish invaders evacuated Brussels, they wanted to blow up the city with explosives, less than pissing overnight, doused the fuse, thereby saving Brussels. • Legend 4: The rulers of the Holy Roman Empire intended to blow up Brussels with explosives, less than even discovering and dousing the fuse. Peeing children is not only a landmark in Brussels, but also a symbol of the Belgian spirit, representing bravery and wisdom. Traditional: Since the 18th century, the statue of the peeing child has changed clothes regularly. Today, he has more than 1,000 costumes that are presented by countries. The peeing child attracts visitors from all over the world for its unique historical and cultural value. There are many famous Belgian chocolate shops around the peeing children, where you can taste and buy your favorite chocolate.”
