Belgium Runway 25L
This spot lies in the extension of runway 25L of Brussels Airport on a path that's easily accessible on foot. Other than this spot simply being a very nice place to visit because of airplanes flying straight over your head as they are going to land, the sun also lines up with the runways twice a year providing a fantastic photo opportunity.
