Why Liege matters
Liège is the main city of Wallonia, a former industrial centre with a warm and lively character. Its showpiece is the Liège-Guillemins station, a soaring white structure by Santiago Calatrava. The city is known for its Sunday market, La Batte, and for the Liège waffle, a denser, sweeter cousin of the Brussels version.
Talking points
- The Liège waffle is sweet, dense and caramelised.
- Calatrava designed the station.
- The Sunday La Batte market runs for hours along the river.
