About Belgium

Belgium packs remarkable variety into a small corner of Western Europe, straddling the divide between the continent's Germanic and Latin cultures. Brussels, its capital, doubles as the administrative heart of the European Union, while Bruges, Ghent, and Antwerp preserve medieval trading splendor. Renowned for chocolate, waffles, and comic-strip heroes like Tintin, Belgium also gave the world hundreds of distinctive beers.
