The Belfry of Tournai

Reviewed By Mb7400 - London, United Kingdom

A very long day, after travelling into the Wallonia region, via Eurotunnel and then, Dunkirk by car - it was a curiosity to me that it was merely two days, off a year, since an evening in Dunkirk, which was not very ‘pleasant or positive.’ Remarkable how quickly a year passes. Have driven through Wallonia several times, yet was not incredibly familiar with this region. (Liege - NOT good!) Conversely, Tournai was really very nice - a good place to stop off, to have a stretch of the legs, and have a breather. The architecture here is certainly highly impressive, and apparently, some buildings here are the oldest in Belgium. The deservedly revered Gabrielle Petit, was also from Tournai, as a colleague pointed out, interestingly. Were unable to go up the Belfry, understandably, which was a pity, as the view would certainly have been impressive. The Belfry itself is an impressive structure and well worth seeing, and overall Tournai seemed very nice - and reminded me, a little of Poperinge ‘mixed with’ Breda in the Netherlands.

Christmas Truce Memorial

Reviewed By PatriciaG147 - Worcester, United Kingdom

A simple cross stands before the swathe of land where, at Chtistmas 1914, soldiers on opposing sides laid down their weapons for a brief few hours to sing carols together across the lines, play football in no man's land, and exchange gifts and greetings. It was an unworldly moment of peace and goodwill before the bloody hostilities resumed next day. As you stand looking across the landscape, it is deeply moving to picture what happened here that night. The memorial itself is small in size, but the event it commemorates was a gigantic act of hope.
