High Way!



The Highway! speed highway.. there were 6 lanes, with 3 lane in each side without any U turn. So cruise at whatever speed you want as long as you are in your control.

Posing with BMW


Me posing with my friend's rented BMW!! in front of my office at Frankfurt. Just few mins before we start Belgium. We started Early morning at around 7.30AM

Break..!



On the way to Belgium we stopped in between for a little break just out of highway. The place was quite cool and attractive.

Speedoooooo!



See the speedometer of the car. It was taken on the way to reflect the normal speed in the highway. Its showing 160Kmph. We even reached up to 200Kmph sometimes.

BMW Class 3



The one which we used to go to Belgium. A tribute to the car, which covered the 400Kms in just 3 1/2 hours.. at a max speed of 200Km/h.. See the numbering system... you can use ur own number as long as its unique with some small rules.

Killer signal



This was the signal where we strcuk and could not understand the logic of it.

Temple..?



One of the temple like building on the way. Precisely in the antwerpen city itself. But we dint go there. This was the place where we got confused with some traffic signal and we stopped our car on the train track(city train). We were just behind the track. And the people going on the way were saying something to us and we dint understand what they are saying just few seconds before the train come we went in to the middle of the track..!! we somehow saw the train.!! about to hit!! Accelerated at once to jump out of the track..! we survived.. Everyone was so scared that even in the dreams we use to get that tramp.. !

Man or statue.?



There was a guy, must be begging. He was dressed himself like one of the statues there. He was posing with the tourists and use to get some money. New way of begging by giving some kind of entertainment.

Cathedral church



The slant view of the cathedral church to show the height of it. Still, I could not cover the full.

Big Door

The fine art on the main entrance of the catherdral church in antwerpen.

Cruel Governor's Story!



The building at the city center decorated with the flags. I have no Idea what they signify. But I could not find the Indian flag there. In the center you can see a statue of a fellow throwing a cut hand(if u see carefully). It was a story back to centuries, when there was a cruel governor and finally one brave fellow cut his hand and threw it away. So he is remembered with this statue.

Pigeon and the King

White Horse



This horse does not look as strong as the one you are going to see in the next pic.. But the special attraction comes from its color.

Simple yet so Attractive..



This building looks to be as usual, seems to be one of many buildings in Europe. But If you can see it clearly, u can see the attractive, beautiful art in it. They represent the old culture and the life style..

Horse Power..!



The powerful horses at Antwerpen city near the church.. I have seen some horses before, but they made a great impression in my mind. Such a strong and masculine. The measure of power in terms of Horse power is really worth it..!!

Castle, Antwerpen



One of the old and must see castle in antwerpen. This has the classical Belgium architecture. Scott is posing like the statue in the pic.. lots of people seeing our crazy act..!!

Me Posing as in statue..

River side, Antwerpen



River side of antwerpen, next to the castle.. not much of crowd and not much to see here.. except that the river is very wide and at the night the scene is awesome..!

Jesus inside the Castle..!



This is one of the very old architecture, Inside the castle there is lot of things to see, if you are very much interested to see the old architecture. For a architecture student this might be something equal to gold. so much things to see...!!
