Travel Guide Antwerp: Our shopping tips in the Zuid district

Antwerp is a port city with beautiful house facades, great museums, a wealth of culture, and narrow streets where there's always something new to discover. The city has preserved its perfect mix of tradition and modernity and is an absolute paradise for diamond hunters, vintage lovers, and fashion enthusiasts. One of our favorite neighborhoods is the Zuid district with its laid-back atmosphere, the unique Klosterstraat, and its many bars, cafés, and small shops. Follow in our footsteps and let Antwerp inspire you as much as we do.
