Belgium Flemish Sint Niklaas

Kasteel Walburg, Sint-Niklaas by ArcheoNet Vlaanderen

A charming Belgian village, home to several interesting historic sites, including the famous Walburg Castle.

The Church of Saint Nicholas was founded in the 13C and gave its name to the city. After heavy damage in the 16C, the interior was redone in the Baroque style. The Chapel of Saint Joseph was built in the 17C by the Franciscans. It was later integrated into a minor seminary and is now part of a high school. The Church of Our Lady and Town Hall, located on the largest market square in Belgium, is more recent (19C). The Gerardus Mercator Museum traces the history of cartography back to its origins. The museum also houses two original globes that belonged to the famous cartographer. Other churches and museums include: Saint Joseph, Christ the King, Salon for Fine Arts and Zwijgershoek.

My husband and I absolutely enjoyed our trip to Europe, our only complaint is that it wasn't long enough. I feel that we just scratched the surface and there is so much more we want to see and do. We definitely will be planning another trip in the near future. RoutePerfect is an amazing tool, it took a lot stress off of my shoulders. RoutePerfect staff was awesome, I had to make a couple of changes and it was done promptly. I stayed in some really descent hotels at a reasonable price. I love the fact that I didn't have to work too hard looking for good hotels RoutePerfect made it so easy to choose where I wanted to stay within my price range and interests. It was our first trip to Europe and we didn't know what to expect. I am so thankful i came across RoutePerfect. I tell my friends and family about it. I recommend it to everyone who asks me about my trip.

I actually just got back from my two week vacation using RoutePerfect! It could not have gone any smoother. I can't speak highly enough about RoutePerfect and how easy it made things for booking accommodations. I actually told my brother about it before his trip to Europe, which he left before me, and he used this site as well and loved it! I tell people all the time about it! Hotels have so much convenience and all the locations were wonderful, so close to everything! I have absolutely no complaints about your site at all and would use it again!!! Hopefully soon!
