As you would expect, the award of additional ‘suns’ is dependent on increasingly stringent quality criteria. So, a ‘fivesun’ attraction must offer services like a sales area with an electronic pay payment option, and it must have the facility to welcome guests in three languages. In Wallonia, some 250 activities could lay claim to the designation of tourist attraction, and therefore be awarded ‘suns’. Some of them provide activities centred around nature and the environment. Others are focused on artistic, historical, scientific or technical activities. A third category consists of facilities where the emphasis is on

This is, above all, a quality initiative. It is aimed at encouraging excellence, and therefore reinforcing the professionalism of tourist facilities in Wallonia. Therefore, ‘suns’ are first and foremost about the quality of the experience provided to the visitor, which includes aspects like staff performance, opening times, accessibility for people with reduced mobility, or the speaking of foreign languages, to cite just a few of the many criteria. For example, to receive its first ‘sun’, an attraction must provide a full telephone

But the number of suns (between one and five) is not based on an evaluation of the content of the attraction, nor does it mean that an attraction with more suns is necessarily more expensive than another.

In Wallonia, the term ‘tourist attraction’ is a protected designation awarded by the “Commissariat general au Tourisme” (CGT). The attractions that have received recognition can also benefit from a classification system – the awarding of ‘suns’ – in the same way that hotels have ‘stars’ and gîtes have ‘épis’.

leisure and fun. This recognition and classification procedure is the only one of its kind in Europe, and it also offers tourist attractions new development opportunities, by making them eligible for investment aid. Ultimately, the system benefits everyone. Because a tourist attraction which focuses on quality is guaranteed to satisfy its customers even more, and those customers will undoubtedly then become its champions.

WELCOME TO WALLONIA, WHERE THE SUNS MULTIPLY, ALL THE BETTER TO SERVE YOU.

The Magic Spell

Brussels, capital of the kingdom of Belgium is also the capital of Europe. Of course, it’s well known for its Grand-Place, its Atomium, its Manneken-Pis, its beers, its waffles and its chocolates… But, just one tip: take the time, too, to soak up the very special atmosphere of its many different districts.You’ll discover a Brussels that’s in the spirit of the times, a capital that’s relaxed and comfortable, as much in its history as in its present-day reality. Very fashionable. Very designer. Very creative. A must to visit !

Great Adventure Game mixing amusement, initiative, team spirit in a fantastic mediaeval world.

OOST-VLAANDEREN

Oost-Vlaanderen is a province full of diversity. Woodlands, flat polder landscapes, deep valleys, rustic villages, aristocratic historical towns and Gent the city of art and culture. All the ideal ingredients for a relaxed outing in the province. Each region in Oost-Vlaanderen has its own special atmosphere. Meetjesland, in the north-west of the province, is a prime example of discretion with its secluded coves. The typical round fields of Waasland are surrounded by pollarded willows in contrast to the cultural and industrial heritage sites that are the great assets of the Leie region. In Scheldeland rivers, dykes and hunting paths are the outstanding features while the Flemish Ardennes bears its title of «the most beautiful landscape in Flanders» with pride. And the beating heart in the middle of these five tourist regions is Gent the city of art and culture. There are so many ways to discover all this beauty. On foot for instance. Around sixty signposted walks guide you safely around the wonderful attractions in our province. Cyclists have also been catered for; in Oost-Vlaanderen you can cycle to your Knokke heart’s content on the biggest cycle Zeebrugge -Heist route network in all Flanders. You just Blankenberge choose the route you want and cycle Damme from one junction toOOSTENDE other. Maldegem
