Medieval madness and infinite sadness. A banquet for the eyes and a disaster for the waistline. Belgium – with its fabulous architecture, fantastical art, poignant battlefields and irresistible cuisine – is a catalyst for your emotions, as well as your senses.

Stand in front of a Hieronymus Bosch and prepare to be engulfed in a ghoulish world of nightmare creatures and fantastic ogres – a complete contrast to the astonishing, photography-in-paint technique of Van Eyck or the rubicund warmth of a masterpiece by Rubens. Or the white marble serenity of Michelangelo’s statue of the Madonna and Child. Belgium is full of impressive art collections and even walking to them, through winding cobbled streets, is a revelation – you’ll be surrounded by soaring Gothic churches, Baroque squares and Art Nouveau mansions.
