Antwerp (Antwerpen/Anvers) is Belgium's second-largest city and its economic powerhouse, home to approximately 540,000 city residents. It operates on Central European Time (CET/CEST). Antwerp is the world's diamond capital — approximately 86% of the world's rough diamonds and 50% of all cut diamonds pass through the city's Diamantkwartier (Diamond Quarter), where hundreds of traders, cutters, and polishers work within a few square blocks. Antwerp port is Europe's second-largest port by tonnage (after Rotterdam), handling over 270 million tonnes annually. The city was the commercial capital of Europe in the 16th century under the Habsburg Netherlands, when it had the world's most sophisticated financial instruments and the largest Bourse. Peter Paul Rubens, one of art history's greatest Baroque painters, lived and worked in Antwerp — his house (Rubenshuis) and works in the Cathedral of Our Lady are highlights. Antwerp is also one of Europe's most dynamic fashion cities — the Royal Academy of Fine Arts' fashion department produced the legendary 'Antwerp Six' designers.
