Liege is the capital of the Belgian province of the same name and the main city of the agglomeration. Liege can be considered the cultural capital of Wallonia, despite the fact that officially it is Namur. And although the city is known mainly for its past industrial development (it lost it due to the subsequent decline in development), today it is still the owner of a rich history, culture, amazing location on the river Meuse and a large habitat students. ...

Antwerp can boldly surpass London in an extraordinary fashion, compete with Berlin in avant-garde art, compete with Prague for medieval charm, compete with Amsterdam in free manners and even challenge Paris in choosing fashionable eateries. Well, in the sale of diamonds, Antwerp is difficult to even compare with any other city, because it is considered to be the capital of diamonds. ...

Spoiled by the bright sun of Turkey and Egypt, tourists from Russia rarely look at the coast of the North Sea, whether it be Germany, Belgium or even France. Meanwhile, in such places there is a unique charm. This fully applies to Ostend - a small Belgian town that has been repeatedly sung by singers, writers and musicians (to recall at least the famous French playwright Eric Emmanuel Schmitt and his "Dreamer from Ostend" or the respected performer in France Leo Ferre). ...

Sarajevo. What do we know about him? Despite the fact that this beautiful city is not very popular among tourists, both Russian and any other, each of us at least remotely imagines what is at stake. We all at school in history learned about one accident that happened in Sarajevo? After all, it was here that Gavrilo the Principle killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand, because of which the world literally experienced a coup that spilled over into the First World War. ...

I went out for breakfast in the morning and met her. She sat with her two daughters and calmly drank her morning coffee. Beautiful to the impossible. Static. World famous, but so natural. Guess who we are talking about? Of course, about Monica Bellucci. Thanks to the Serbian director Emir Kusturica, Monica stayed in this small town with a population of hardly more than 30 thousand people for several seasons in a row. ...

For the first time I heard about Nessebar from Dmitry Krylov’s program “Non-Traveling Notes”. There, the city was presented in such a romantic manner, with beautiful old streets, where you can quite by accident hear from the window of the house how the mysterious maestro plays on Yesterday. I am not a particularly romantic person, but his tasty story bribed me. ...

Plovdiv is an amazing city that I sincerely love. Despite the fact that it is not on the coast, it is the most interesting city in the continental part of the country after the capital of Sofia. It is very convenient to travel around Bulgaria, exploring Sofia, Plovdiv and, for example, sunny Burgas, making an unforgettable trip lasting a month or two, as I did. ...

Bansko is the best ski resort in Bulgaria. The snow lies here for six months, after which this place does not empty: lovers of mountain biking come here. Personally, I was lucky to visit Bansko at the end of the ski season and get a lot of vivid impressions of the trip, despite the snow melting at the foot of the mountain. ...

"St. Vlas? Where is it at all?" - so every conversation begins when they ask me which resort in Bulgaria I flew to. It is unfortunate that few people know about this wonderful place. Or vice versa? I am inclined to the fact that, possibly, the lack of crowds of vacationers at the height of the season creates a very special atmosphere in the town. ...

Have you ever had such a thing that you could not describe something? And not because they could not pick up words, but because there are too many of them? This is the situation I have with Burgas. Naturally, the first thing that comes to mind that Burgas boasts is the sea. Yes, you can have a great time on the beach, sunbathing and swimming, but that’s not all. ...
