"Beer, mussels and french fries" Belgium by bambino36

Belgium has the most beautiful cities I've seen, in particular Brugge, Gent, Leuven and Antwerp.
Counting three visits to Belgium til now, I can say that this country always surprise me for it's beauty.

The Castle of Jehay, Belgium

The first time I was in Belgium I've been around eight days in Antwerp... but I haven't seen the city properly... I was 20 years old and was interested in other belgian beauties ;) ... anyway, I still had time to spend a day in Brugge!
In 1999 I stayed in Brussels for 10 days and Brugge for 8 days. I rented a car (a Fiat Seicento!!!) very cheap in fact and had the opportunity to visit a lot of places in Belgium. The Ardennes where I found magnificent castles almost at every turn on the road, the Meuse Valley and places like Waterloo, Durbuy, Dinant, Namur, Huy, Knokke-Heist, Blankenberge, Zeebrugge and Oostende.
In 2004 I went there for 5 days and stayed in Brussels and reserved two days to visit Gentand Leuven.
One of the things that always come to my memory when I think of Belgium is in fact the beer. Hundreds of different kinds of beer and many of them are really good. I felt the beer production in Belgium is really an art being improved over the centuries.
