The last stop of the July 2019 European tour was Brussels, Belgium, and there were quite a few highlights in my impressions of Brussels, Belgium.

When we entered the Grand Place in the center of Brussels, we were greeted by the sculpture of “a warrior on a thin horse with a spear and his attendant on a donkey”. The sculpture of “The Great Windmill”.
I read the story of “Don Quixote vs. the Windmill” when I was a teenager. I finally realized that the two men, “a thin one, a fat one, a tall one and a short one”, in the conception of the writer “Cervantes”, are a heavy “ideal” and a practical one. The two characters, “a thin one, a fat one, a tall one and a short one”, were conceived by the writer “Cervantes” as an ideal and a practical one, and the design of the “old Don” made all kinds of actions that were contrary to the times and unbelievable.

Standing in front of the home of the famous French writer Victor Hugo, you can see the red glass room.

Do you want to understand the difference between survival and life? Animals survive, while people live.” Victor Hugo Victor Hugo” the master is guiding us to live.

The “Swan Lake Restaurant” on the east side of the main square in the center of Brussels is the place where Marx and Engels, the two revolutionary mentors who called “a ghost, the ghost of communism, wandering in Europe”, wrote their “Communist Manifesto”. The “Communist Manifesto” was written by the two revolutionary teachers in this place.

A bronze statue of the world-famous “Pissing Child” Yulian can be found in the Edourif alley near the main square in the center of Brussels.
The statue is half a meter tall, with curly hair and a naughty nose. He is completely naked and is peeing there. The base of the statue is a pond, less than Lian peeing “urine”, like a trickle of water, pouring in the pool below for years.
There is a story about the patriotism of Lesser Lian in Belgian folklore. Once the enemy broke into Brussels and set a fire in the street, just before it was lit. His urine doused the fire and saved Brussels, which became a beautiful story for ages. The people of Belgium have set up a bronze statue of the little hero in memory of him.
