I don't think anyone has ever thought Belgium was cool. Been to Brussels plenty of times and I think it might be the least cool city in all of Europe. Except for FOSDEM of course. That is pretty damn cool.
Oh really? I always liked Brussels as a typically modern European city: a nice combo of old and new, friendly locals plus it's nice and walkable and has a decent variety of food options, though Bruges has them beat on walkability.
Plus they have a lot of great beer and the mitreillette, what's not to like?
I've definitely been a few places I'd rank lower anyway
Imo cities like Bruges or Antwerp are much nicer.
Bruges is a museum.
