With its charming towns, delicious chocolate and intriguing history, Belgium is one of my favorite countries in the world! Even though it\u2019s rather small, Belgium is well-known for its cultural sights and natural beauty.<\/p>\n    <p>From the northern coast of the North Sea to the Ardennes wooded hills in the southeast, Belgium is home to modern cities that preserve their old medieval heritage, charming little towns with beautiful architecture, enchanting castles, abbeys and much more.<\/p>\n    <p>Divided into the northern Dutch-speaking Flanders and the southern French-speaking Wallonia, with the multicultural capital of Brussels sitting in the middle, Belgium is a diverse destination that you should definitely visit. I had the chance to discover some of the most interesting places in this country, starting with Brussels and continuing with towns like Bruges or Ghent.<\/p>\n    <p>When visiting Belgium, my only advice to you is to try all the chocolate flavours. You\u2019ll probably gain a few kilograms but trust me, it\u2019s worth it!<\/p>\n    <p>I hope that the following guide will help you plan a great trip to Belgium.

The German-speaking minority is concentrated near the eastern border with Germany. Nevertheless, Belgian people usually speak more than one language, with English being spoken by the younger population. There are minor differences between the Dutch and French spoken in Belgium than the ones in France and the Netherlands.

An important thing to know is that the banknotes and coins of every country in the EU vary slightly even though you can use them anywhere inside the EU. There are plenty of banks and exchange offices in all of Belgium and you can easily find ATMs, especially near busy areas and tourist destinations. ATMs accept most international credit cards, especially the popular ones like MasterCard, Visa or Maestro. Credit cards can be used to pay in most hotels, restaurants and shops in Belgium.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n  <div class=\"col-sm-3\">\n    <figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large customDanMoHideOnMobile\" style=\"padding: 15%;\" data-imagelightbox=\"g\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/visaRequirmentsIcon.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11098\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/visaRequirmentsIcon.png 600w, https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/visaRequirmentsIcon-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/visaRequirmentsIcon-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n    <figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large customDanMoShowOnMobile\" data-imagelightbox=\"g\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/visaRequirmentsIcon.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11098\" style=\"padding-left: 35%; padding-right: 35%; padding-bottom: 30px;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/visaRequirmentsIcon.png 600w, https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/visaRequirmentsIcon-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/visaRequirmentsIcon-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n    <h3 style=\"text-align: center; margin-top: -35px;\">Getting a Belgian Visa<\/h3>\n    <p>As a member of the Schengen Agreement Zone, there are no border controls for most member countries of this agreement, as well as several other countries. Travelers who have a Visa for one of the members will also be able to travel to other member countries. Also, citizens of many other countries (United States, Australia, Japan and most countries in Europe, Asia or the Americas) do not need a VISA to visit Belgium and they can stay for up to 90 days. However, some countries still need a VISA and a valid passport to enter Belgium.

Therefore, you can reach any destination within Belgium in just a few hours. The public transport system is excellent, with fast and diverse connections between most places in the country. Cities and major towns usually have subways or tramways that complete the bus transportation network and a ride usually costs 2 Euros. Buses are usually used to travel on shorter distances, while all cities and towns can also be reached using trains. Cycling is also extremely popular in Belgium and there are bikes available to rent in most cities. Taxis are quite expensive all around the country (each kilometre starts at around 1.8 Euros)<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n  <div class=\"col-sm-3\">\n    <figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large customDanMoHideOnMobile\" style=\"padding: 15%;\" data-imagelightbox=\"g\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/transportIconTrain.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/transportIconTrain.png 600w, https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/transportIconTrain-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/transportIconTrain-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n    <figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large customDanMoShowOnMobile\" data-imagelightbox=\"g\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/transportIconTrain.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11390\" style=\"padding-left: 35%; padding-right: 35%; padding-bottom: 30px;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/transportIconTrain.png 600w, https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/transportIconTrain-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/dailytravelpill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/transportIconTrain-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n    <h3 style=\"text-align: center; margin-top: -35px;\">Trains<\/h3>\n    <p>Most of Belgium is easy to reach by train.
