About Belgium for visitors

Belgium is a chocolate-and-beer-fueled crossroads — Brussels houses Europe's power brokers and medieval squares, Bruges charms with canal-side perfection, Ghent buzzes with bohemian energy, and the Ardennes countryside draws weekend escapees. Waffle and beer tourists compete with EU bureaucrats for hotel beds.

Brussels Airport (BRU) funnels most arrivals; Antwerp (ANR) and Charleroi (CRL, serving budget carriers) handle secondary routes. Immigration processing is swift; electronic gates streamline eligible passengers through quickly even during peak periods.
