Photography Tour in Leuven

The best photos of Leuven aren't at the obvious landmarks. The real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot.

Leuven is a vibrant Belgian university city with the world's longest bar street, a breathtakingly ornate Gothic town hall, and the Stella Artois brewery at its heart.
