Although nowadays at the very centre of Europe, Belgium still remains a mystery to many people. The combination of cultures at this continental crossroads lends Belgium a very cosmopolitan feel. In the North, Dutch and Flemish are the languages commonly spoken; in the southern half of the country it is predominantly French. However, as just about everybody speaks perfect English as well, there are no communication problems. Near the coast, around Ostend and Zeebrugge, the land has only recently (geologically speaking) returned from the sea and is fairly flat, apart from the dunes that is. Heading south the countryside soon changes to farmland, small villages and green rolling hills. The Belgians famous for their beer, chocolates and mussels will be only too pleased to point out some of the other attractions of this friendly land. |

If you arrive in the country by ferry it is well worth stopping off for a game at Royal Zoute en-route to Waterloo. This course regularly hosts the Belgian Open and it is immediately apparent why. If you would like to stay a night or two in the area there is only one spot for you - Brugge. A fabulous town with all manner of delights on your doorstep, architectural, historical, epicurean, nocturnal - and don't forget the 400 or so different beers... |
