expats_eyeAccepted answer
map_readerFor those from EU or Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Switzerland you just need your national id card. Non-EU people from places like USA or Canada dont need visa for short trips but if your country is not on that list you need a Schengen visa. Also dont expect super friendly service in bars because people here are just direct and not fake nice. Good luck

practical_peteBe careful around train stations because they can be unsafe
tech_charleroiTaking any train departing from Brussels South is the best way to reach Brussels Central station quickly. It is very efficient. Do you have your rail pass already?
bxl_property_guyI avoids using the back entrances of major stations like North or Midi at night (it is just a bad idea)!
