Belgium
Belgium occupies the western part of Europe and lies on the North Sea coast. Being a small country, all of its major cities such as Brussels, Antwerp and Liege, as well as all places of interest can be reached within a couple of hours through comfortable transport. This country hosts a great number of festivals and carnivals, most of them related to music and theatre. Belgium has excellent cuisine and fabulous wine varieties, not to mention the types of beer, brewed with many different ingredients beside the standard ones. A real temptation for young and old, however, and a triumph of the senses is the Belgian chocolate, which has a long tradition and a superior taste.
