Antwerp, Belgium’s second largest city, boasts one of the largest harbours in the world. The railway station is one of the most stunning buildings in Europe. Our Lady Cathedral is the largest gothic church in the Lowlands and it boasts countless precious paintings by world class artistsof the 17th century.
The absolute masterpieces, however, are the Rubens paintings. Our guided walk through the old city starts at the Steen, the impressive 13th century castle that guarded the city and its port. We take you to the gothic guild houses at the Market Square. The river Scheldt is the cradle of Antwerp where the city built the MAS-museum, famous for its spectacular views of the harbor and the old city. In your free time, do enjoy the local beer called a ’ Bolleke’.
A Midsummer Night’s dream Afternoon Tea inspired by scenes from the play, guests will be able to enjoy a collection of sweet and savory delights, many of which can be traced back to the food and characters seen in the play itself.
Visitors to the exhibition can discover how shows were produced in the theatres of Shakespeare's time, from writing and rehearsals to music, dance and performance. There are opportunities to learn about the traditional crafts and techniques used during the process of rebuilding the Globe; to find out how special effects were produced in Shakespeare's time, to listen to recordings from some of the most memorable Shakespearean performances ever, or join the cast and add your own voice to a scene recorded by Globe actors; to create your own Shakespearean phrases in the word jungle; to watch a sword-fighting display and browse the costume collection, where you can learn about the extraordinary methods used in creating clothes 400 years ago.
A visit to the Exhibition includes a guided tour of the theatre where expert guide-storytellers provide fascinating half hour tours of the auditorium, taking visitors on a journey through time back to Elizabethan London as well as the reconstruction process of the 1980's-90's and how the wooden 'o' works today as an imaginative and experimental theatrical space.
An exhibition visit and theatre tour lasts about one and a half hours.
Before or after your visit why not indulge in Afternoon Tea served at Swan at the Globe? Enjoy the lovely view of the River Thames while savouring a very British & delicious tea. All ingredients are sourced from local farmers, foragers and markets.

Verpassen Sie nicht den Park Güell: Hier ist Staunen garantiert!
Dieses architektonische Wunderwerk wurde von Antoni Gaudí inmitten der Natur geschaffen und von Graf Güell in Auftrag gegeben. Dieser wollte in ihm ein elegantes Anwesen mit Einfamilienhäusern errichten. Heute ist es ein öffentlicher Park und gehört zum Erbe der Stadt.
Es wurde zum UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe erklärt. Wenn Sie zum Park Güell gehen, sollten Sie die große Treppe betreten, die von einem mit Keramikmosaik verzierten Drachen dominiert wird, dem katalanischen Stil, der als "Trencadís" bekannt ist. Dieser Drache ist eines der charakteristischsten Bilder Barcelonas. Ursprünglich ist der Park um einen großen zentralen Platz herum angeordnet, der von schlanken Bänken begrenzt wird. Unterhalb des Platzes wird das Dach von 86 dorischen Säulen wie Bäumen mit dazwischen liegenden Pfaden und Viadukten auf geneigten Säulen gestützt: Gaudís Arbeit vereint wie keine andere Natur und Architektur.
