Brussels, Belgium is known for beer, chocolate, and being the capital of the European Union. Many people stop right there. But for a unique Brussels experience (including beer and chocolate and a very good lunch, of course), savvy travelers know to go where the locals go, and discover what you won’t find on the brochure. Jeu de Balle square is one of those places. Jeu de Balle flea market in the Marolles district continues to be a local staple for bargain shopping, and although the market is well-known, there are always new diamonds waiting to be found in this rough. From 6 a.m.-2 p.m. daily, sellers peddle their wares, from old to new, junk to funk, and strange to sublime. Haggling is a must. If you real want to seal the deal, just wait until closer to 2 p.m. For over tree years Jeu de Balle was my favorite Sunday morning hobby. I already miss it.
