Dazed in Antwerp, the Diamond District

#wheretogo This is Antwerp, Belgium. It’s called the Diamond District because of its centuries-long history of being the capital of the jewellery industry, particularly diamonds! Have you heard of this city’s name in movies? The thieves always refer to this place when it comes to selling their diamonds. That’s because this place has been the house of diamond cutters, polishers, and traders since the 17th century. We arrived at the Antwerp train station: Antwerpen-Centraal with the first thing in mind - to try a Belgian waffle! And so we went straight to the mall area (the one saying Stadsfeestdzal in the photo) and sure enough, we found a Belgian Waffle stall. The air was chilly, as it was autumn, nearing winter. So when I took a bite of that warm waffle with whipped cream on top, it was heavenly! I don’t know what makes a Belgian Waffle better in Belgium!? It must be the batter! #belgium #belgiumfood #antwerp
