Belgian airports and must see cities

Fly into Brussels Airport (Brussels-Zaventum Airport) and you’re perfectly placed to explore not just the capital but the rest of Belgium too. This beautiful city is easily explored by foot and the Grand Place is a great place to start. The striking Town Hall and Gothic Breadhouse are the most well-known buildings here but the others are just as spectacular. Galleries such as the Magritte Museum are among the cultural highlights found in the capital and you should allow plenty of time to explore them thoroughly.

Already been to Brussels? Drive to Bruges instead for a taste of culture and beautiful architecture. Take a boat trip along the canals and visit the Belfry before heading to the beautiful ancient town of Tournai. 2,000 years in the making, Tournai is filled with history and excellent museums.

Alternatively, make your way to Spa. Whether you’re here for the Circuit of Spa Francorchamps or a spell in one of the healing springs that put this town on the map, you’ll discover a new and unexpected side to Belgium.

Belgian battlefields

If you’re here to visit the battlefields of World War I, it’s likely you’ll start at Ypres (Flanders). A number of battles were fought here including the Battle of Passchendaele resulting in the deaths of around 1 million soldiers.

Whilst in Ypres, make sure you visit the Lakenhalle. This medieval cloth building was one of the largest commercial buildings in the Middle Ages before it (and nearby St Martin’s Cathedral) were destroyed during the Great War. Reconstructed between 1933 and 1967, it has been restored to its former glory and, along with the Cathedral, has become a poignant reminder of the cost of the war.
