Belgium Tourism

About Belgium

The Realm of Belgium is rich in places of significance to the tourist, mainly because it was here that two European cultural groups once met and overlaid. The fascinating countryside and many cultural attractions make it well worth a visit at any time of the year. The summer holidaymaker will find widespread beaches and quaint dunes in the resorts along the Belgian North Sea coast. Belgium is a land of extraordinary architecture, sparkling nightlife, appetizing cuisine, castles and cathedrals. Sometimes called ‘Europe’s most unconventional country’, Belgium is unique and a peculiar tiny place. If you’re looking for something unusual, you’ll find it here, whether it’s amongst the wild and weird festivals or simply the daily life. From fine dining and vigorous country fare to decadent chocolates and scrumptious beers, Belgians have a keen sense for the good things in life. The country also has an all-embracing range of accommodation from luxury five-star hotels to small family inns. Public transportation is low-priced and well-organized.

Belgium has one of Europe’s richest art histories, having been ruled for centuries by ever-changing European powers. Brussels, the capital of Belgium and the European Union, is a city full of distinctions. Laissez-fair locals give a casual air, while the busy Bureaucrats remind us of Brussels’ important position in the EU. Give yourself time to discover its colossal architecture, attractive shops, café culture, fine restaurants and wonderful museums. Antwerp has attitude, attracting fans of fashion and party kings and queens. Beautiful Brugge, Belgium’s major tourist destination evokes medieval allure. The forested Ardennes is where serene stone villages cozy up in bucolic river valleys. Bordered by France, Germany, Luxembourg and The Netherlands, Belgium’s features are the great forest of Ardennes and the broad, sandy beaches of the northern coast, which sprint for over 60km. The scenery varies from copious rivers and gorges in the Ardennes to the undulating plains of the countryside.
