A land whose specialties include beers and delicate chocolates, Belgium is often perceived to be a little dull. The image that it’s simply a staid haunt for business executives and Eurocrats, or a gateway to the rest of Europe, reinforces that idea. But Belgiumis a prime destination if you’re interested in countryside, culture and history, served up alongside a huge proportion of highly acclaimed restaurants serving everything from haute cuisine to moules-frites or Belgian waffles.

Easy to travel around, this pocket-sized country is divided by the Flemish north (Flemish-speaking) and the Walloon south (French-speaking). The capital Brussels is the heart of the country and the European Union. Expanding outwards from the brilliant Gothic architecture of the Grand-Place, this cosmopolitan city contains numerous interesting museums and many fine eateries. The Manneken Pis statue is the place to pose for a photograph and laugh incredulously at others doing likewise. (From the Travel puppy web site)
