Antwerp and Flanders feels like a world away from Rotterdam, but it is, at most, 45 minutes from South Holland. Antwerp is located in Belgische Vlaamse Brabant. Not to be confused with Noord Brabant in the Netherlands or Brabante de Walonie.
Here are some wonderful photos of my Saturday in Belgium. What you should remember is that if you want to buy clothes or shoes ect. you want to go to Belgium, where sales are allowed all year round, and sales tax is cheaper (a lot cheaper). But liquor and cigs should always be bought in Holland (or Luxembourg if you have the chance).
