25 Disney characters on a tour in Brussels
Twenty-five Walt Disney charactershave escaped their studios in California and invaded Brussels. Though far from home, they quickly found their niche in the city.

While Lady and the Tramp sit down for a meal in the Ilôt Sacré, Merlin attempts to enchant the Place du Jeu de Balle, and the 101 Dalmatians discover Zinneke-Pis. If piglet is getting nervous about what’s in store for him at the abattoir, Cinderella seems to have found just the right fit on the steps of the Palace, and Anna happily ice skates at the Place de la Monnaie. Pinocchio is rolling in the dough at the Toone Puppetry Theater…

 

Mowgli

 

Alice
Alice is spending a little too much time in Wonderland in the garden of the Alice and David van Buuren museum. A green space signed by René Pechère. 

 

Anna

 

101 Dalmatians

 

Aladdin & Jasmine

 

Scrooge McDuck

 

Peter Pan
While on the way to Neverland, Tinkerbell, Wendy, and Michael take a pit stop in Brussels around the statue of Peter Pan in Egmont Park. It’s a copy of the statue in Kensington Garden and stands for the friendship that brought Belgian and English children together during World War I. 

 

Tiana
Brussels has a wild side. Toads have taken up residence in the fountain in the Petit Sablon, and Tiana finds what she is looking for. 

 

Pinocchio

 

The Hunchback of Notre-Dame
At the top of one of the towers of the Saint Michael and Gudule Cathedral, the Hunchback of Notre Dame is desperately searching for the Seine. But the Senne is no where to be found… 

 

Piglet

 

Merlin the Wizard

 

Rapunzel
Trapped in a dudgeon, Rapunzel throws down her ponytail to help Flynn reach her before they escape from Porte de Hal. 

 

Flash McQueen

 

The Princesses

 

Robin Hood
Against one of the first gates that guarded Brussels, Robin is ready to release his arrow. Backup assistance for the Saint Sebastian Royal Order of Archers in Brussels! Protecting the city since the 14th century, these archers, crossbowmen, and fencers still practice the manual art of these forgotten arms. 

 

The Incredibles

 

The Lion King

 

Ratatouille
Though far from his kitchen in Paris, Alredo Linguini can feel right at home in one of the iconic restaurants in Brussels: Comme chez soi on Place Rouppe. Fortunately the chef Lionel Rigolet has a brighter future than Auguste Gusteau’s.

 

Tarzan

 

Ariel
By doning the Disney princesses with realistic hair, Loryn Brantz and Buzzfeed gave Ariel the right look for when she emerges from Manneken-Pis’ fountain. 

 

Mulan

 

Pocahontas
John Smith awaits Pocahontas at the Mellaerts ponds. Fair enough, this isn’t the New World, but a Sunday expedition for many people out and about in Brussels. 

 

Lady and the Tramp

 

The 7 Dwarves
One more, our 25th Disney visitor. And now hey ho, hey ho back to work we go!
