If you don't mind the often heavy traffic, this is one of the most interesting hills in Brussels: long, fairly steep with a nice bend as you approach the Coudenberg, and an interesting (rear!) view once you get there. The upper part of the hill, from Coudenberg to the gate of Namur, is much less attractive.

If you don't mind the often heavy traffic, this is one of the most interesting hills in Brussels: long, fairly steep with a nice bend as you approach the Coudenberg, and an interesting (rear!) view once you get there. The upper part of the hill, from Coudenberg to the gate of Namur, is much less attractive.

If you are there for tourism, there are plenty of museums nearby, in particular the exciting Musical Instruments Museum, whose entrance is in the former Old England shops, itself a masterpiece of Art Nouveau architecture.

Si on n'a pas peur d'une circulation souvent très intense, c'est une des côtes les plus intéressantes de Bruxelles : longue, assez pentue avec un beau virage à l'approche du Coudenberg, et intéressant panorama (arrière !) une fois arrivé à cet endroit. La partie supérieure de la côte, du Coudenberg à la porte de Namur, est nettement moins attrayante.

Si on s'y trouve pour le tourisme, il y a foison de musées à proximité, et en particulier le passionnant musée des Instruments de Musiques, dont l'entrée se trouve dans les anciens magasins Old England, en lui-même un chef-d'œuvre d'architecture de style Art Nouveau.
