5. Centre Belge de la Bande Dessinée

LOWER TOWN.   Often considered laughter-provoking, comic strips in Belgium are serious business, to the point of being referred to as the "ninth art." Belgium's best-known comic export is Tintin, the boy and his dog created by Herge in 1929. Along with Tintin, the Belgian Comic Strip Center pays homage to Asterix, Thorgal, the Smurfs, and Willy and Wanda, along with Andy Capp, Charlie Brown, and some familiar superheroes. The museum is housed in a renovated Art Nouveau building designed by Brussels' native son, Victor Horta.   (© 10Best)
