The kingdom of Belgium is located between two major tourist destinations -

France. Editors and
writers of travel magazines claim that the beauty of Belgium simply encompasses
everything that the whole Europe could offer. The kingdom is so small that a
tourist may be able to experience the best of Belgium within a day. It is small
indeed but there are a lot of things waiting to be explored especially by
foreign travellers. Prepare to pack a few poems with you as you take your
special someone to a romantic cruise in the canal located in Bruges. There are
also certain places in Belgium where one can hunt for the girl's best friend -
diamonds, which are usually situated in Antwerp. Tourists may enjoy the sun,
sand, and waffles at the beaches of Oostende. Experience the three day festival
at Binche that happens every month of February and be captivated as the town
takes you back to the 16th century through their musical parades and colourful
costumes. If you want to feel like a prince or princess for a day, Belgium is
abundant in castles which are well-preserved up until now. There you can see
authentic antique furniture and display that reminds the locals of their past.
If you are interested in antique items, you can browse the market located in
Liege and take home a great souvenir from Belgium. There are also museums where
you can see the works of the greatest artists in Belgium situated in Brussels.
All these tour can be very exciting and can be done through walking especially

haven't experienced riding a train, then Belgium offers this type of
transportation that would take you to all places within Belgium without so much
fuss.

honeymoon because of all the things that this kingdom could offer and must-see
