When we came back from the Belgian coast (post below) it was dark and while chatting, of course I didn't pay attention and didn't listen to Mrs. GPS either. With the result that I took the wrong exit and suddenly we saw the
Atomium, the balls illuminated ! It was at the other end of Brussels, not where we had to go, but it was such a nice surprise ! I had never seen the Atomium by night !
During the day it looks like this. In the balls are a bar, a restaurant and exhibitions.
From far I saw it shining
and of course stopped, got out of the car to take these pictures
There were many people probably for the restaurant, because it is located in the upper ball and you have a beautiful view over Brussels.
It looks like the balls are just floating in the sky! Brilliant!!
ReplyDeleteAmazing views. I love light displays.
ReplyDeleteSo those balls are big enough to house a restaurant? You did well, taking a wrong turn and ending up seeing this beautiful sight!
ReplyDeleteI think the night view is better than the day one.
ReplyDeleteIt looks amazing at night.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful sight! Imagine coming upon that while driving...magical!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to go up to the restaurant, I imagine the view would be spectacular either day or night.
Wow! This looks great! The night view is definitely better.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely sight at night!
ReplyDeleteI didn't even know it existed. Very pretty at night!
ReplyDeleteWow. Your night shots are amazing. It must have been really fun to experience in person.
ReplyDeleteHi Gattina .. what an interesting idea - and I'd love a dinner in the restaurant! I'm glad you took that wrong turn!!
ReplyDeleteCheers Hilary
