Architectural Building Attractions In Wallonia

  • 1. Gare de Liege-Guillemins Liege

The Brussels-Capital Region is bilingual; hence, both the French and Dutch names of the station are official. Outside Belgium, this often leads to the use of combined shorthands; for example in the Thomas Cook European Rail Timetable, Brussels-South is designated as Brussels Midi/Zuid; Dutch Railways announce the station as Brussel Zuid/Midi. The station is also connected to the Gare du Midi/Zuidstation station of the Brussels Metro system.
