Beautiful Belgium,
where languages such as Flemish (Dutch), French, and German are all
recognised as official languages, opens its arms to tourists. Bordered by
France, Luxembourg, Germany, and the Netherlands it makes it an ideal
place to stop for your next holiday. The Scheldt and Meuse, which are
major commercial rivers, and the Ardennes are waiting to be explored.
Exciting cities to visit are of course the capital city Brussels,
beautiful ports of Antwerp, Zeebrugge and Ghent, delightful Charleroi, and
Liege.
If you want to learn
about Belgium's past then you are in the right place, Celts, Julius
Caesar, Rome, the Franks, Burgundy, Spain, Austria, France and the
Netherlands all play a major role in Belgium's rich history. Divided into
3 regions, Wallonia, Flanders, and Brussels, Belgium is a fascinating
place to visit.
