The trendy Het Zuid neighbourhood is all about art and culture. Here you’ll find the city’s three large museums (the Royal Museum of Fine Arts - which is undergoing renovation - the Museum of Contemporary Art and the Photo Museum), numerous art galleries and a few famous auction houses. The area around Vlaamsekaai and Waalsekaai is home to modern galleries and some exclusive design and interior shops. Worth checking out, even if just for some inspiration.

Het Zuid’s hipster factor is highest in Volkstraat, where you’ll find several trendy concept stores that stock design products, unique accessories and lots of interior objects. A very lively neighbourhood which is always nice when shopping.
