What immediately convinced me at the time was the view: a stunning panorama of Antwerp's iconic skyline. From the dining area, you look straight at the cathedral, the Boerentoren tower and the Oudaan police tower. Belgiëlei is a wide, central boulevard from which you can get anywhere on foot: within half an hour you can be in every corner of the city centre. It was always lovely living in this spacious, light-filled flat, with the lively city as its eternal roommate.
