The Atomium


The larger-than-life molecule created for the 1958 Worlds Fair lies on the north side of Brussels. Flocks of Japanese tourists descend upon the site and for 9 euro (=$13) you too can ride the elevators up to each globe. There is even a restaurant at the top but, really, how can you top a wonderful french meal at Chez Leon? Style over substance, I suppose.
