I visited this place by passing the the GR. It's a very calm place without too much tourism. Take a brochure in the tourism office entitled "Grand Site de la Boucle de l'Ourthe" and you'll find lots of great sites around Esneux and the Ourthe river.

If glassware is your thing - or you're interested in the history of industrial processes and skills - this is the place to be. The home of the famous Belgian crystal glass makers - Val St Lambert - this attraction combines a working factory with tours, museum and factory shop. Definitely do the tour - to see glass being blown - if you haven't seen it before - is amazing. Combine that with a browse round the shop (you'll need a BIG credit card) and the museum and it really is a fine way to spend half a day.

N'étant pas fan d'armée j'avais un peu peur. Mais le guide Grégory est très passionnant et passionné. La visite vaut le détour pour un prix dérisoire, très belle ambiance. Des gens et un concept intéressants. On découvre les entrailles de ce fort ainsi que son évolution. Une collection d'armes et de costumes la complète. Après un pot de l'amitié à la caféteria.
4. Opera Royal de Wallonie-Liege
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 149 reviews
Founded in 1967, the association Opéra Royal de Wallonie-Liège is largely subsidized by the Wallonia-Brussels Federation, the City and Province of Liege. It is one of three major opera houses in Belgium. From the beginning, the institution occupies the Théâtre Royal de Liège, beautiful building loaned by the City of Liège (opened November 4, 1820). Its location in the heart of Liège and the Euregio, at the crossroads between Germany, the Netherlands, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and France, attracts a wide audience both Belgian and international.

We attended several Performances at the newly refurbished Opera royal de Wallonie and enjoyed every minute of it! The performance was first rate (the Italian sisters of Cav and Pag, set in production by tenor Jose Cura -- who also performed the lead in both of these short works.) It was magical!
The opera staff is friendly and goes out of its way to assist visitors; it was a delight working with them.
The opera house itself is not imposing in the foyer area; I'm not sure if the reconstruction is complete but it is very shallow and when we were there still covered with rough construction detailing. Inside the auditorium, it seems each seat must have good sightlines and the acoustics seemed wonderful.
Women's bathrooms, as is true in far too many places, were small and with too few stalls.
If opera is your thing and you are in Belgium when the Opera Royal has a production, it may well be worthwhile to visit and enjoy a wonderful evening of music.

It's a great example of a Romanesque church. The directional signs said it was from the 12th Century. The graveyard was very quaint.

What a fantastic experience for kids or adults ... In a safe, but impressive, environment, you get the feeling of flying. Instructors are real professonals. An experience to live, really. The only very negative points is the "management" : trying to call several times without any success, getting a smile from the lady at the reception is a huge challenge, and the picture package is a way to get a bit more money but you will do better with your phone ... They probably think that because of their success, they don't need those basics things ... Anyway, congrats again to the instructors. Great Job combined with passion (we had the letton guy by the way).
7. Ardennes American Cemetery and Memorial

A young soldier from my wife's hometown in Texas is buried here so we've been trying to get here for quite a number of years. Finally made it and found his grave. She put a small American flag on his grave.
The entrance to this cemetery is particularly moving. After leaving the parking lot and walking past the entry building you suddenly walk up on the thousands of perfectly aligned markers. If this doesn't bring a tear to your eye, nothing will.
We were particularly impressed with the quality and the thoroughness of the battle maps that are on display inside the entry building. Someone (several someone's) surely spent a tremendous amount of time researching, planning and executing this spectacular display. The attached photos don't do it justice but it will give you the general idea until you are able to visit.
Rest in Peace young soldiers.
Highly recommended

This cemetery is different from the other American Cemeteries. The crosses stand here in very long rows (and the graves form a large cross) instead of arcs as in other Cemeteries. Also the cemetery is a large field, which makes it less park-like than the other American Cemeteries. The thousands of crosses makes the cemetery impressive.

I like Church Buildings that have more than a nod to what Christianity is all about.
To that end I was delighted with the exhibition which was on display here, with various Bible passages and scenes providing the artists with their inspiration.
The bright Sunshine and simple high level yellow windows cast fabulous shades across the floor and seats.

Reviewed By georges j - Liege, Belgium
Comme la plupart des églises de Wallonie, nous avons trouvé porte close même un dimanche passé 10h00. La façade extérieure est très banale et elle donne directement sur la rue principale. Soyez prudent car les automobilistes du coin roulent à vive allure malgré une visibilité très limitée. Cette église est minuscule, on dirait une chapelle.
