I am trying to find postcards of the Belgian royal family to buy and send to fellow postcrossers. I spent an hour in Brussels visiting tourist shops looking for postcards but I found none. The only ones I saw were ‘funny / silly’ style at Plaizier, which is not what I wanted.
When I am in a rush / changing trains , I always buy my postcards in the Brussels South/Midi railwaystation . There are a few ( a.o. newspaper ) shops …
There is a shop where you find postcards about the current Royal Family and about the previous ones :
Address
Place des Palais, 7
1000 Brussels
(In front of the Royal Park)
Opening time
Monday to Friday: 9.30 am – 5 pm
Saturday and Sunday: 10:00 am – 6:00 pm
School holidays: 10:00 am – 6:00 pm

When you want older postcards from the royal family you can always go to the miltary museum at the cinquantenaire. The first Saturday of every month there s a market of old documents and books.
