Manneken Pis - Little Man Urinating


It is strange that they use Dutch word "Manneken Pis" in Belgium. I think it all goes back to histroy as Belgium is Netherlands' neighbour.

This signboard tells you what dress is to worn by the little man. So on my this day of visit ( 7 October ), Tibetan Monk.



Signboard showing some of the points of interest.


The chocolate shop next to the little man seems to cater more to Chinese as the sales personel speak fluent chinese.


You can also bring back a chocolate replica of the little man if he fancies you so much.

There are many legends about this little man. One of the possible explanations is given by my guide.

Watch the pissing in action.
