The Capital of Europe or Unknown Belgium

“Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine.”

Anthony J. D’Angelo

There is a saying that Belgium is a cold and gray country with permanent rain and constant flu 🙂 Yeah, that’s all you could imagine about such north majestic country. Even Belgians are used to represent themselves as boring nation. But now I will show you Belgium under other angle.

Being the capital and the heart of Europe Belgium contains all kinds of beauty. There are the most modern and beautiful high business centers in the capital – Brussels, which is also a headquarters of European Union. It has amazing parks, so green and clean. But also there are such a lot of medieval castles and each one is so different and has it’s own features. This is a very progressive country – it’s very convenient for living – you will find there everything needed for comfortable living, for people different ages and different categories. There are a lot bikes – people think about environment so the ecology is perfect in Belgium.

The Kingdom of Belgium meets all strangers with rains and puddles. But you shouldn’t be afraid to be wet because under the gray cover you will see the real beauty. The most beautiful sky, with fluffy clouds will show amazing views over rivers. You could be lucky to see some rainbows in the such a changeable sky. I’ve never seen so many shades of gray and blue colors – it worth to see! And you will never know which weather will be in an hour. But it doesn’t mean people have a flu often – no, people are healthy there. They know how to have fun. There are a lot of pubs in Belgium and they boil a very tasty beer – there are many types of beer – it worth to try 🙂

Belgium is located on the sea so it has beaches too but in contrary of sunny and warmer France the beaches are empty there and  it’s obvious – there is a North Sea. There are only some days in the year when you can really swim in that sea. Travelling there in the middle of the summer I was truly hoping to swim 🙂 But the weather was like in the middle of November somewhere in Germany or Ukraine. But there are own advantages – you can be on the beach all alone and feel the air, the breeze and peace, to be alone with your thoughts and it’s very safe in there. There is also a big and important for industry and economy port.

And smaller cities in Belgium has an incredible love and popularity in very demanding tourists because it’s impossible not to be in love with lovely cities where you feel so comfortable and like in the center of the Middle Ages. Measured way of living gives you an opportunity to enjoy the beauty around and to find places you will be for sure in love with.
