Wonderful holiday in a hotel in Hasselt


I just returned home from a wonderful weekend in Limburg, particularly in a hotel in Hasselt. Imagine a region where you can endlessly cycling through the beautiful natural, safe, away from cars on wide roads, with no holes or bumps. Where people on your kindly greeting. Where on a sunny terrace to enjoy a nice refreshment or a delicious local dish. If you walk in Limburg than you will enjoy. Plenty. From the walk itself. Of the environment. From the pedestrian areas. And of the many hidden places which are accessible only to hikers. Rippling streams, natural ponds full of life, stiltegebieden, carpets dew in the morning, empty roads, scenic beauty, pleasant villages, beautiful city centers ...

The cultural offer in Limburg is very extensive, so much during my stay in a hotel in Hasselt clear. Several museums to learn more about the past, present and future. In Hasselt you can write to the National Gin Museum and the Fashion Museum, in the Gallo-Roman Museum Tongersestraat learn everything about the history of the oldest city in Belgium, there is the Museum of the Flemish Minor in Sint-Truiden, the oldest private pharmacy in the country is in the Maaseik Museactron ... And let us certainly not forget Open Bokrijk where Flanders anno 1850 alive. But not only museums provide the extensive cultural offerings in Limburg. You can also visit castles and mills, cultural events, there is no shortage, and if you want the typical Limburgse streekcultuur breathing you be sure to visit Limburgs a craft business.

Hasselt is an important trade center in Belgium and a shopping paradise for tourism. So who is addicted to shopping, have a weekend in one of the many excellent Hasselt hotels super good. The city has its charming traffic free shopping, colorful terraces and stylish shopping malls. Hasselt enjoy international fame through his extensive and exclusive fashion range, enhanced by the Modemuserum and a special mode circuit. In addition, the Hasselt jenerverstad par excellence. The Manneke Drink and the National Jenervermuseum have become the symbols of Belgium's capital jenever. Many hotels Hasselt to play this very well from tourism assets!


The history of the county Loon comes to life in the abbey and the house of refuge Herck Red. Art can be found in Hasselt in many places: in the Cathedral and the Virga-Jesse Basilica, in the museums, the Begijnhof and the numerous art galleries, parks and streets and on the Green Boulevard. Hasselt, the beating heart of the green Limburg, the city with the largest Japanese Garden of Europe, the city of Grenslandhallen, Kinepolis, Pukkelpop, Indoor Plopsaland the Jenerverfeesten, delicious spiced Hasseltse so on. During my stay in that Hasselt hotel I have several of my thumbs and fingers have to lick , so it was tasty!
