Antwerp is a surprising city. One of the largest ports in the world (it is ranked 15th by World Shipping Council) it's famous for being the largest center for diamonds in the world. Although you might think this would give the city a bit of a gritty or industrial vibe, in fact, Antwerp has a robust economy that supports delicious and innovative restaurants, historic charm, high fashion, and a profusion of museums, walking streets, and (of course) diamond tourism.
