Weather
The climate of Belgium is cool and wet because it is influenced by the Atlantic Ocean, especially on the coast and the plain. In the south-eastern regions (Ardennes), which are located at higher altitudes as well as at a greater distance from the sea, the climate is more continental, and also more unstable in summer.
Top Highlights
- Enjoy the 65Km long stretch of sandy coastline which has 15 resorts.

- Discover the most beautiful villages in the Walloon province.
- Beguinages, carnivals, belfries, coalmines… Belgium is well represented on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
- Indulge yourself with food. Belgian cuisine is about far more than the traditional mussels and fries. The range of Belgian flavours is broad and varied, from sweets to savouries.
- Go for a city trip! Belgium has a remarkable number of cities of art which have a lot in store for you.
Cities of Art
Belgium has a remarkable number of cities of art and each one has a lot in store. After a visit to the museum in Antwerp, you can take a trip in a horse-drawn carriage through the old city centre. In Bruges, take a boat trip along the canals and later, you will be ready for a night out in the convivial surroundings of the pubs.
Belgian Gastronomy
Belgian cuisine is about far more than the traditional mussels and fries. The range of Belgian flavours is broad and varied, from sweets to savouries. Traditional Belgian dishes are hearty: rabbit cooked in Gueuze, Flemish beef stew, waterzooi with chicken or fish, stewed eel in a green herb sauce, chicons au gratin, “américain” with fries… There are so many delicious dishes to discover and savour.
The Ardennes
The Ardennes, situated in the south-east of Belgium, is one of nature's unspoilt areas, rich in fauna and flora, with vast forests of broadleaf and fir, hills, and fast flowing rivers. Visitors can wander through the many picturesque villages nestling in the valleys where traditions and folklore still live on, and where the region's arts and crafts can be enjoyed.
