Brussels car-free day 2026 - Bike Stroll in popular areas

Once a year, Brussels has a car-free day, and that day is today. Cars aren't allowed into the city unless they have a special permit, so you'll mostly see public transportation, taxis, and a few people who didn't know about it and risk getting a fine. It's the perfect day to ride a bike, so I cycled from my place into the very center of Brussels and strolled around some of the city's most popular areas.
