As quintessential as waffles and truffles, comics form an integral part of the Belgian culture. Pioneers of the lingua claire style embodying strong lines and flat colorful two-d motifs, its artists have strewn the city with fascinating street art gracing non-descript corners. Treasures such as this Obelix mural adorning a neighborhood basketball court simply lie around, waiting to be discovered by the intrepid tourist who dares to lose oneself amidst its nameless streets.
