Liege Belgium

Liège is Wallonia's largest city and the third largest municipality in Belgium after Brussels and Antwerp. The city lies on the confluence of the Meuse and the Ourthe Rivers. Great river port and economic and commercial metropolis close to Germany, Liège is the seat of economic institutions in Wallonia. Its glorious past has left a rich heritage in churches and museums. Liège is also a university town with a very lively atmosphere. Place Saint-Lambert is the heart of Liège. Nowadays it is a wide open space in modern design. Surrounding the square is the shopping mall Galeries Saint Lambert, the palace of the Prince Bishops of Liege and the Place du Marche, where stands the town hall and the Perron, a column symbolising the municipal liberties. The Place Saint Lambert is the central hub of Liège. It is an extremely busy place that is crowded with people. The Saint Paul Cathedral is the main cathedral of Liege. It was built in the 10th century but underwent many restorations since then. In front of the church is the square called Place de la Cathédrale which is beautifully decorated with flowers. The square boasts several restaurants and is a perfect place to sit down and have a meal or enjoy a cup of coffee. Liège has a number of very interesting museums such as The Arms Museum, where you can find a lot about the history of arms making, The Curtius Museum, with decorative arts, seals, coins and medals, and The Museum of Wallon Art, where you can see the collection of paintings and artefacts. Liège has innumerable riches in store waiting to be discovered. Quirky and lively it has a large number of restaurants and bars to entertain locals and tourists alike. Its vigorous cultural and artistic life and a considerable architectural heritage make Liège an essential part of any trip to Belgium.
