The province of liège: a unique diversity between culture and nature

Located at the heart of Europe, the Province of Liège benefits from a strategic geographical location and has an unbeatable tourism offer.

In fact, this destination has several unmissable elements such as the city of Liège, the Cité Ardente (fervent city) which has seen continuous development over several years to the point of becoming one of the most modern Belgian destinations. It has the largest Sunday Market in the country (the Batte), the oldest and largest Christmas Market in Belgium, one of the largest stepped streets in Europe (Montagne de Bueren) but also the unique Opera of Wallonia.

Liège also abounds in creativity, and vitality. Spectacular renovations have totally transformed the urban landscape. Among these transformations, let's mention the TGV station of Liège-Guillemins, the Tour des Finances (highest tower in Wallonia), the Opera Royal of Wallonia, the Cité Miroir or even the Théâtre de Liège, and so on. Finally, Liège, a thousand-year-old town  along the Meuse River will charm you with its history, its many museums, its historic heart and its river cruises!

Culture and heritage will inevitably be on the programme

A few kilometres from Liège, the prestigious Circuit of Spa-Francorchamps is host to celebrated races and the splendid Abbaye de Stavelot is home to its museums. Blegny-Mine, recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the Abbaye du Val-Dieu are witness to the rich industrial past and to the ancestral know-how of those who went before us. Not far away, the castles of JehayModave and Reinhardstein rise majestically at the turn of a road and the Préhistomuseum is established as the largest museum dedicated to Prehistory in Europe.
