Join us in creating a worldwide poppy field. 100 years ago, war raged in Europe and changed the face of history. To commemorate the thousands of lives it claimed, we would like you to join us in creating a worldwide poppy field. All you have to do is visit flandersfields1418.com/poppyfield, where you will be able to plant a virtual poppy to commemorate one of the many people who died during the Great War. Help keep the memory alive.

he Westhoek is situated to the far west of the country, a virtually unspoilt part of Flanders, near France and the North Sea. The many scars of “The great War” bear witness to an eventful history, more than 100 years ago now. Various museums and visitor centres keep this memory alive. The authenticity of the region has been kept almost intact, as you will see when you have a taste of the many delicious regional products, such as the biscuits of Jules Destrooper! More information about the region in general can be found on www. toerismewesthoek.be. Info about the region’s attractions in particular is available on www.365.be.

he Leie region is situated along both sides of the river Leie, reaching from the French border to the Artevelde city of Ghent. The region became well-known for its flax industry. At the beginning of the last century more than 13.000 people worked in the flax factories and over 120 million kilos of flax were processed then. Today you can walk along the banks of the Leie and enjoy the heritage, the recreation areas and water fun. Who does not know about the battle of the Golden Spurs in 1302? More information about the region in general can be found on www.toerismeleiestreek.be. Info about the region’s attractions in particular is available on www.365.be.

he Antwerpse Kempen or the Antwerp Campine region makes many of us think of “De Stille Kempen”, the purple heath and the vast pine woods. However, the region has a lot more to offer than its vast area of pure nature. Many recreation areas are relaxation oases for families with children. The playgrounds and amusement parks guarantee fun and the many museums in cities and villages depict the history of this marvellous region! More information about the region in general can be found on www. antwerpsekempen.be. Info about the attractions in particular is available on www.365.be.

LEUVEN

Leuven

ouvain, a city of students and brewers. Louvain has been the University City of Flanders since its foundation in 1425. Later on Stella Artois completed the picture and became a worldfamous brewery. Would that be a coincidence? Louvain also offers numerous museums, «M – Museum Leuven» being the best known. It also has a rich heritage of historic buildings and sites: abbeys, beguinages, carillons, churches, faculty buildings and last but not least, the widely known Town Hall. More information about the region in general can be found on www.visitleuven.be. Info about the attractions in particular is available on www.365.be

he Hageland is one of Flanders’ lesser known regions. This eastern part of Flemish Brabant lies to the east of Louvain and is the gate to Haspengouw. In Hageland fruit cultivation is also omnipresent. Cities like Tienen, Aarschot, Landen and Diest are certainly cosy places to visit. Relics from the Gallo-Roman times run like a red thread through various city museums. Certainly pay a visit to the Sugar Museum in Tienen. More information about the region in general can be found on www.hageland. be. Info about the region’s attractions in particular is available on www.365.be.

hrough the centuries the Maas has created a unique landscape. Green plains, creeks and marsh land with lots of water birds, plants and herbs. Next to the twisting river a series of picturesque Maas villages arose, where culture, heritage and museums define the local colour. A tip: discover the region on a horse-drawn cart. The beautiful landscape and water richness of the Maasland indeed offer many recreational possibilities. Plenty of water fun in the Maasland.

Tourism in Wallonia Belgium let the sun shine!

Wallonia

n Wallonia, the term «Tourist Attraction» is a protected designation, awarded by the Commissariat General au Tourisme (Belgian Tourist Board). Attractions awarded this distinction also benefit from a www.belgium-tourism.be classification system of «Suns» (one to five). The number of «Suns» refers first and foremost to the quality of the experience provided to visitors, which includes criteria such as service quality, opening times, disabled access and foreign languages, to name but a few. To receive their first «Sun», attractions must publish a leaflet containing a description and practical information, and offer a clearly-identifiable reception area. «Three Sun» attractions must offer services such as electronic payment, and be able to welcome guests in two languages. «Five Sun» attractions must offer a shop and be able to welcome guests ©CGT - A. Siquet - Ruined medieval castle in La Roche-en-Ardenne in three languages. Tourist attractions committed to offering faultless quality are guaranteed to satisfy their visitors, who will undoubtedly become their leading ambassadors in turn!

Welcome to Wallonia, where our «Suns» always shine… All the better to serve you! © CGT - A. Siquet - Hergé museum
