The Enchanting Charles Buls Fountain: A Tribute to Brussels' Heritage

Getting There

• Car

  If you're traveling by car, head towards Brussels and take the E40 highway. Use exit 24 toward Brussels-Center. Follow the signs to the city center. Once in the city, navigate to Rue du Marché aux Herbes. There is limited street parking available, so be prepared to park in one of the nearby parking garages, such as Parking 58, which charges about €2.50 per hour.

• Public Transportation - Train

  For those using public transportation, take a train to Brussels Central Station (Bruxelles-Central). Once you arrive, exit the station and walk towards the Rue des Colonies. Turn left onto Rue de la Loi, then continue straight until you reach the Rue du Marché aux Herbes. The fountain is located here, approximately a 10-minute walk from the train station.

• Public Transportation - Metro

  You can also take the metro to Brussels Central. Take Line 1 or 5 to the Central Station. From there, follow the same directions as if you arrived by train, walking towards Rue du Marché aux Herbes, which is about a 10-minute walk. No additional costs are incurred beyond the metro ticket, which typically costs around €2.10.

• Walking

  If you are already in Leuvense Vaart, you can reach Charles Buls Fountain by walking. Head towards the nearest public transport station and take a tram or bus that heads to Brussels city center. After disembarking, walk toward Rue du Marché aux Herbes. The fountain is located in this street, which is easily accessible on foot.
