A Visual Tour of Belgium
Bringing you the very best of Belgium – strap in for the ride!
Namur
Namur is a small city filled with historic buildings. It’s a city where two rivers converge, with tons of shopping and gourmet treats. It’s the perfect walking city. Their mascot is a snail, which gives you an idea of the expected pace around here.
Namur is filled with restaurants with outdoor seating and public squares

The Citadel is an old fortress, which is now open for tourists. Honestly, there’s not much to see aside from the view, but it’s worth checking out anyway. It’s up a long and windy road with sweeping views of the entire city of Namur. At the top are a couple of cafés where you can have a snack and take in the sights. It’s definitely worth seeing.

I so love Belgium!!!! My friends say I’m obsessed with it. Well, I kinda agree with them!!!!!! ahhahahah!!!!!! And I have a trivia for all the readers out there, Do you guys know that? Belgians are on record as being the first people to slice a potato into long, thin rectangles and then cook them in hot oil. Now, isn’t that amazing????!!!

Belgian chocolates, especially the cream-filled ones, are the best in the world and the really good news is that chocolate shops are happy to sell them to you one at a time. You’d get a quizzical look if you tried asking for a single Belgian chocolate in Harrods!

Let’s face it, Belgium isn’t that high up on most people’s travel wishlists. Even my Belgian friends can see why, but that self-effacing personality is part of the charm of the place.

I need to convince my husband to choose Belgium for our next vacation, I myself already fall in love with Belgium after reading this article. But talking about my husband, hmm well, I need more feedback to convince him.
