Schaerbeek is more than just a peculiar name, it’s a municipality with a deep-rooted history. Found in the heart of Brussels, this area was once known as the City of Donkeys, a name that came from the use of donkeys by traders of sour cherries. You can still find lots of donkeys in Josaphat Park, the area’s largest and most beautiful public park. About a 10-minute drive from Brussels, this municipality also offers a tranquil environment that stands apart from Brussels’ bustling center while still providing convenient access to the most fascinating shops, museums, tourist attractions, and street food in Brussels. Those with dietary restrictions need not worry either, as they can also take the quick drive over to visit some of the best halal restaurants in Brussels.
The streets of Schaerbeek are lined with magnificent buildings, which boast stunning architectural designs. For instance, the 16th-century Schaerbeek Town Hall is a stunning piece of work. With plenty of places to visit and things to do, you’ll need a cozy place to call home. Scroll down to find out more about the top Airbnb vacation rentals in Schaerbeek, Belgium.
