Liège photo spots📷
1 Liège-Guillemins Train Station 🚄
A masterpiece by the architectural master Calatrava. The exterior looks quite magical, and the interior space is even more stunning, feeling like walking inside a fish skeleton, with a very modern and sci-fi feel. You can choose to arrive at the Liège-Guillemins station by train, and take the opportunity to admire it.
2 ⛪︎Cathédrale Saint-Paul de Liège
This is a Gothic church, and in addition to the traditional Christian stained glass, Liège Cathedral also has some parts designed by a Korean designer incorporating some Asian design elements, which is quite special.
3 Montagne de Bueren in Liège⛰🏃♀️
This must be one of the important landmarks of Liège, and climbing up not only offers a view but also World War I and II monuments. Liège, located on the border with Germany in Belgium, was an important military fortress as a vantage point overlooking the entire city. During World War I, the German army besieged the Belgian army on this mountain, and after holding out for 11 days, the Belgian army surrendered to the Germans, hence there is a monument on the mountain to commemorate the history of the two world wars.
4 La Boverie Museum of Fine Arts🎨
La Boverie is a contemporary art museum located right opposite the Liège-Guillemins station, with a pedestrian-only bridge leading to the museum.
Closed on Mondays, open every other day from 10am-6pm.
Permanent exhibition: Free admission for students under 26
