Antwerp,
without the filler.

Every pin passes the Sunday-access test. The copper route now favours properly curated antiques, fashion, design and open museums—no flea-market scavenging or rummage-heavy stops.

Guide from Central: spend ten focused minutes on the booking hall, stacked platforms and train shed. Best walk: De Keyserlei → Meir → Wapper/Rubenshuis → St James exterior → Snijders&Rockox House. Best taxi: Keizerstraat 10–12, then continue on foot through St Charles Borromeo → Cathedral and Vlaeykensgang → Grote Markt → Het Steen.
Curated route: begin with the Snijders&Rockox House if wanted, then join Kloosterstraat at Blue Fonz after 13:00. Walk past Kolonaki and Brigitte Aerden to Mark Wijns, then continue through Kammenstraat, Nationalestraat, Wilde Zee, The Chocolate Line and the Mayer van den Bergh highlights at Maagdenhuis before collecting luggage at Botanic. The Sint-Jansvliet flea market has been removed. Open the curated walking path

Gold dashes = the guide spine. Copper line = the curated shopping route, with Google Maps providing exact pedestrian geometry. Its street anchors deliberately favour Kloosterstraat, Kammenstraat, Nationalestraat, Wilde Zee and Lange Gasthuisstraat. Every visible marker is accessible on Sunday; hours and addresses checked 16 August 2026. OpenStreetMap tiles; no private Amsterdam address is included.
