Brussels is very pretty city, it is like a transaction point of two cultures and it was lovely to even just walk around the city, yet as the sun goes down it is a good idea to be little more careful, especially if you are close to Brussels north or Brussels midi, stay safe 🐰💕

Only spent 1 day in Brussels but it was so beautiful. There's so many historical buildings that are breathtaking. However, there are a lot of homeless people asking for money on every street, there was a young girl in kfc going to every table asking for change.

I fell in love with this town! It is so beautiful, a blend of London, New York, and Paris. It has so many beautiful places to go. The prices are moderate, almost same throughout the Europe. Food is delicious!

Brussels is generally safe during the day, but the city center can feel less comfortable at night, especially in quieter or less busy areas. It’s best to stay in well-lit, lively places and be mindful of your surroundings. Like in any big city, pickpocketing can happen, so just take normal precautions.
Posted: April 15, 2026There is always some kind person who can help you if you have a problem you just need to ask. For sure you will be in safety.  Sometimes we have just one drink guy who can be annoying in the centre you have a lot of shops who can protect you

Brussels can feel unsafe for women, especially at night: some outer districts and empty streets have a tense atmosphere, there is more harassment and pickpocketing risk, so it’s better not to walk alone
