보르스벡 최고의 사이클링 경로

The inner fort of Fort 3 Borsbeek consists of two semicircles of different diameters (approximately 90 and 60 meters), placed with their bases touching. The larger semicircle, the "head," faces the enemy, while the smaller, the "tail," faces away. A courtyard is located at the center. Troop rooms, storage areas, and a kitchen are located on the ground and first floors of the inner fort. A battery, integrated into the "tail," was built on the second floor to defend the entrance to the inner fort in case of emergency. The "head" at that level is covered with earth and planted with plants. A dry moat, a road that runs entirely around the inner fort and can be closed off at various points, encircles the inner fort. This dry moat served to bring any attackers within range of the defenders' fire. The moat is formed by a counter-escapatory (a wide earthen rampart with defenders' quarters fitted with loopholes). In front of the main front is a central caponier which, together with two half side caponiers, defends the front part of the moat with mounted cannons.

Street art artist SMOK transforms the temporary site at the Peperbus into a beautiful work of art. Definitely go and take a look 🤩

For Walls of BoHo, Joachim invited his buddy 2 Dirty, this enigmatic local artist painted on the busiest spot across the street. His comical style and clean lines betray his roots in graffiti; this artist likes to collaborate with others and always stays in the background. He painted on this temporary wall that hides an unused entrance to the metro system.

The planes fly low above you here. You also have a surprising view of the highest buildings in Antwerp (among others the boerentoren, .. you can see from here).
