Things to do in Leuven, Flanders: The Best Shopping
The old Burgundian university town of Leuven offers a range of adventures for overnight visitors or day-trippers from Bruges and Brussels. Tourists will find everything from gastronomic tours to architectural gems like the Gothic Town Hall. Nature lovers won’t be disappointed. The Kruidtuin Botanical Garden’s herbal gardens are the oldest in Belgium, and Heverleebos, a “city wood,” offers a respite for urban dwellers. The exploring is easy in Leuven, on foot or on one of the ubiquitous bikes.

Looking for a place to buy some artisanal chocolate Easter eggs for an Easter breakfast with a friend in Leuven, I was happy to find Chocolaterie Guy Raets-Putseys smack in the centre of town. The eggs were sold by weight and didn’t come cheap but they were well worth the money. Their aroma was mouth-watering and they tasted like heaven.

Great place to find a special present for someone (perhaps yourself). A lot of unusual books, pretty plants, and stuffed animals integrated into furniture and ornaments.
