Boring Belgium? ‘No’, say our tipsters, who have explored art nouveau in Brussels, beer in Bruges, kayaked in the Ardennes – and even stayed at a bowel hotel.
Winning tip: See-through church, Borgloon
This chapel/art installation by Belgian architects Pieterjan Gijs and Arnout Van Vaerenbergh are modeled on the traditional village church.
Kayaking in the Ardennes
The river Lesse is shallow and safe but the downstream current carries you along with minimal paddling effort.
Woods on wheels, near Brussels
Sonian Forest is an expansive green playground that’s perfect for exploring on two wheels.
Well toned, Brussels
The Musical Instrument Museum is in a stunning art nouveau building in central Brussels, which was built as the Old England department store.
Bowel hotel, near Antwerp
At the CasAnus Hotel visitors can stay in a gigantic replica of the human bowel, complete with huge rectum (and all mod cons), in the middle of Belgian countryside about 15 miles from Antwerp.
