Timeline
19:02
Grab a take-away teriyaki or sushi menu at Esaki Tongeren. It is open late and close enough to start your walk without rushing.
19:47
Walk to the Old chocolate factory. Find a spot near the main entrance to admire the large horseshoe-formed stained glass window. The setting sun will illuminate the squirrel logo from the west.
21:02
Head to Casque, a Grand café just a minute's walk away. Order a drink and settle in as the evening light fades.
Local tip
The sunset direction shifts slightly westward in spring, aligning well with the factory's western-facing entrance features.
