A TASTE OF BELGIUM

Last december we had the chance to visit belgium for just a weekend.we came back to rome to celebrate new year's eve here.The place was on ice and it was freezing cold but that did not stop us from roaming around the city.To give you an idea of our short vacation here :

Brussels is the capital of Belgium and the administrative centre of the European Union. This has earned the city the title of the Capital of Europe. Brussels has been given its character by the coexistence of French and Flemish culture, and it is nowadays home to nationalities around the world, adding a cosmopolitan flavour to its atmosphere. The vibrant atmosphere of Brussels is further enhanced by picturesque medieval streets, lively squares, beautiful boulevards, impressive monuments, spacious parks, cosy cafés, interesting restaurants and an active cultural life.



Bruges is the historic capital of West Flanders, Flanders being one of the three regions of
Belgium.
Bruges is one of Belgium's chief tourist attractions.
