Bye bye Belgium!
How did you like my travel impressions this month?
I have good memories from Belgium.
I would say Belgium is a friendly country that can be easily visited.
Belgium – Final Impression
Month: July 2020
Belgium – Windows
I mention many times on my blog that I love taking pictures of windows.
Aren’t they beautiful? 🙂
Belgium – Ghent has to be not just seen but experienced
On the https://visit.gent.be/ is written:
“Ghent has to be not just seen but experienced.”
So, enjoy Ghent. 🙂
Belgium – Ghent Castle
The Gravensteen (Castle of the Counts) is an amazing medieval castle in Ghent.
Belgium – Ghent – Gent
Take a boat trip in Ghent (Gent) and enjoy the city from a different perspective. 🙂
Belgium – Ghent
Ghent is another nice Belgian city, another city of art.
Don’t miss it during your travels!
Belgium – Antwerp Castle
Het Steen Castle (The Stone) is the oldest building in Antwerp.
Belgium – Antwerp Tunnel
Kind of unique attraction in Antwerp is St Anna’s Tunnel (Underpass) that was opened in 1933.
I guess, my picture doesn’t show that the tunnel is actually nice…
Just take a walk. 🙂
Belgium – Antwerp – Antwerpen
Antwerp or Antwerpen is one of the Belgian cities of art.
Absolutely worth visiting.
Belgium – Mechelen – City on the river Dijle
Apparently, people refer to Mechelen by saying “City on the river Dijle”.
Belgium – Mechelen
Mechelen is another nice Belgian city.
My first impression from Mechelen was “am I still in the Netherlands”.
I hope nobody will get upset by saying this, but for me Mechelen looks like “typical” Belgian city or “typical” Dutch city. – it’s positive!
Belgium – Bruges Love
Bruges is my favourite city in Belgium.
Have you been there?
Belgium – Bruges – Beguinage
Beguinage or Begijnhof – the Princely Beguinage Ten Wijngaarde Bruges is such a charming place that after seeing its white-coloured houses you’ll fall in love with Bruges.
Really, I did. 🙂
Belgium – Bruges or Brugge
I spent a few years in the Netherlands, so I prefer to use the Dutch names of Belgian cities and pronounce them in a Dutch way, and that confuses my conversations in English. 😀
Belgium – Bruges – UNESCO
The historic centre of Bruges is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Belgium – Bruges
Bruges is a lovely city.
Don’t miss while visiting Belgium!
Belgium – European Union
Brussels in Belgium is a headquarter of many international organisations,
one of them is the European Union (EU).
Belgium – Unknown Country
Do you know that Belgium is apparently kind of not so well known country,
at least outside Europe.
I’ve never thought like that about Belgium,
but some Belgians said it.
Often people hear about Brussels, but not really about Belgium…
Belgium – Brussels Sprout
Yes, the name of brussels sprout was delivered from the name of the City of Brussels.
Belgium – The Atomium in Brussels
The Atomium is very originally shaped museum in Brussels.
This building was designed and built for the Brussels World’s Fair in 1958 (Expo58).
