About Belgium
Independent for more than 175 years, this country has plenty to offer all those interested in ancient architecture which still has a considerable hold over cities such as Bruges, known as the Venice of the north, and Ghent, once viewed as a Medieval rival to Paris. Brussels and Antwerp are dynamic, vibrant cities popular among the young.
Nobody hurries in Belgium: Take time to relax and enjoy all that the countryside and historic towns have to offer.
