Just outside of Brusells, continue the celebration of cartoons at the Herge Musee (Herge Museum). The museum is dedicated to the creator of Tintin, following him and his life, including his personal experiences.

Belgium, being cartoonists heaven shows proudly its heritage here and there. So does the futuristic building containing the Hergémuseeum outside Brussels. A short trip by train, a short walk and you are about to see incredible sketches as well as getting to know the highly regarded man behind the images. A significant moment for Tintin-lovers.

This historic farmhouse, the last authentic witness to the battle on 18 June 1815, accommodates a pioneering multimedia installation that tells the story of the “battle within the battle”. The show combines innovation with respect for memory. Hougoumont Farm was the scene of fierce and deadly fighting. It is located in a forward position that protected the Allies’ right flank, and was where Napoleon’s brother sparked off the battle. What was only supposed to be a diversionary manoeuvre at first became the most violent point of the battle. Throughout the day, the French assaults here were furious but in vain. The main building was burned to the ground. The house we see today is in fact the former gardener’s cottage.

If you have heard of the Battle of Waterloo you must visit. If you have the slightest interest this will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. I took advantage of the opportunity to stay in the landmark trust property for four days. Learn some of the history then see where it all happened. Real history at first hand.

This museum is situated in the former stagecoach station where the Duke of Wellington stayed on the nights of 17 and 18 June 1815. You can still visit the Duke's bedroom, the office where he wrote his victory report, and his aide-de-camp's bedroom. Various other rooms have been dedicated, each to an army, including authentic documents, etchings, weapons and souvenirs of the various nations that took part in the combat. There is also an impressive collection of rare weapons, such as "la Suffisante", a cannon manufactured in Douai, France in 1813 and abandoned on the battlefield. Each round weight 6 lbs. Your individual ticket for entry into the museum entitles you to an audio guide available in various languages. Duration of the visit: 50 minutes.

I was surprised all of the items they had in this museum and the details of Wellington's movements in the days before the battle. I thought there was a lot of information/interactions in the museum for children and there was an audio guide too.

The museum part of this site was modern, with audio guide and nice exibitions. The 4d movie was exiting. The mound and panorama a bit older but stil very good. All in all, a very good experience at this interesting place in European history!

Best waterpark we’ve ever visited — hands down! I brought my 2 girls here for a last minute summer holiday break and it far exceeded all our expectations! It was super easy to get to using public transport (train) from Brussels. Upon entering the park the first thing we noticed was how scrupulously clean everything was! I’ve never seen anything of a similar standard in the UK. Changing rooms and toilets and showers were all spotless and smelled so fresh. We arrived at around 2.30pm and the park was full but not crowded. We easily found a deckchair to put our towels on and the girls (aged 8 & 11) were able to go off exploring on their own as the park is small and feels very safe. The temperature inside was lovely and warm and the water was wonderfully warm and clear also. The tropical decor really enhances the feeling that you are there to relax and enjoy the day. There wasn’t much of a queue for the rides and by 5/6pm there were no queues at all and we went down all the slides at least 10 times each! Don’t forget to try the hot tubs for some soothing bubbles at the end of the day. :) Lunch at the restaurant was good, basic fast food, but a bit pricey. Overall we stayed until 8pm (closing time on that day) and enjoyed every moment. Fantastic day out and good value for the clean, safe environment and awesome rides. Will certainly be returning!
