A 5k walking tour of the European Quarter of Brussels curated by visit.brussels.

The European quarter is known as a densely built, monofunctional office district, intersected by many city motorways. However, not everything has changed. In a number of places, such as the Square De Meeƻs or the Leopold Park, you can still sense what it was like in the past, when the bourgeoisie left the busy heart of the city to build their large mansions here next door to beautifully constructed green parks. In recent years, a lot of effort has been made to diversify the neighbourhood, by introducing more housing, more shops and pedestrian squares. The European institutions have never been more overt to the public than now. And last but not least, the district is home to some of Belgium's most important museums.

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
