Antwerp....Belgium, not to be mistaken for the colour blue!

 
Let's visit Antwerp.  You can see on this map that Antwerp is inland, yet it is the world’s fifth largest port thanks to the Scheldt tidal estuary.  It is also the centre of the diamond trade.

Don’t let that fool you into thinking it is all business and boring!  Antwerp is vibrant, lively, and one of Europe’s centres for art, architecture, cuisine, and haute couture. It is considered Belgium’s “capital of cool”!

Totally flat, it is a great city to view by bicycle but even with the help of wheels, you won’t be able to cover it’s thousands of restaurants, bars, boutiques, antique shops, art galleries, museums, or chocolate outlets in one visit!

The buildings are spectacular inside as well as out.  Check out this quick video to get you inspired.
