Brussels city is quickly becoming a trendy spot for weekend getaways and holidays. Apart from its famous chocolates and beers there are many attractions that most visitors cannot begin to imagine. It is a centre of European culture, officially nicknamed ‘the European Village’, with almost 90 museums, beautiful parks, fascinating walks, trendy restaurants and bars.
One of the joys of a Belgium vacation is trying the Belgian food. Restaurants in Belgium are known for offering some succulent meals, and though the food in Belgium is heavily influenced by French tendencies, the country manages to inject its own flavors.
Belgium is subjected to a temperate climate from the coastal regions inland to about Brussels.
Towards the ardennes the climate becomes more continental, with colder winters and warm summers. Rainfall is evenly distributed throughout the year. Snowfalls are also frequent. The average daily temperatures range between 4 degrees in winter and 22 degrees in the summer.
