EDITORS COMMENTS
Mont des Arts: A Historical and Ornamental Masterpiece in the Heart of Brussels, Belgium The Mont des Arts, or The Arts Hill, is a historic and ornamental complex located in the heart of Brussels, Belgium. This stunning hillside terrace, adorned with lush gardens and grand staircases, offers visitors a unique perspective of the city's rich history and artistic heritage. The Mont des Arts was created in 1919, following the destruction of the medieval fortifications that once surrounded the city. The architects, Alphonse Balas and Paul Saintenoy, sought to create a space that would not only showcase the city's artistic and cultural treasures but also provide a tranquil escape from the bustling streets below. The hillside terrace is accessed via a series of grand staircases, each adorned with intricate ornamentation and sculptures. The steps lead up to the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, which houses an impressive collection of Flemish and Belgian art, including works by Rubens, Bruegel, and Van Dyck. The Mont des Arts also offers breathtaking views of the city, including the iconic Grand Place and the Manneken Pis fountain. The terrace is surrounded by lush gardens, which are particularly beautiful in the spring and summer months when the flowers are in bloom. The Mont des Arts is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in Belgian history, art, or simply looking for a picturesque spot to take in the beauty of Brussels. With its stunning architecture, intricate ornamentation, and tranquil gardens, the Mont des Arts is a true masterpiece that continues to captivate visitors from around the world.
