Belgium, the home of Tintin, chocolate and tasty beer, is
located in the heart of Europe and has a rich cultural
heritage.
Belgium has found it hard to shake off a reputation for
dullness. The coast – almost entirely built up – is
certainly undistinguished but Belgium has some handsome
brick-built cities.
Belgium is famous for its
art, architecture, oil paintings as well as chocolate, beer,
waffles and chips. It is centrally situated in Europe with
boundaries towards the Netherlands, Germany, Luxembourg and
France.
Belgium has a population of
over ten million people in an area of around 30,000 square
kilometres (11,700 square miles) so distances here are
small.
Brussels also has an
important international role as the European capital the
city is home to the European Commission and to the Council
of ministers of the European Union (EU).
Brussels is the bilingual capital of Belgium - both French
and Dutch are the official languages of the city and street
names and traffic signs are always in these two languages.
It is a cosmopolitan city where many different cultures live
together and where different languages can be heard on each
street.
