Belgium

By Travelog Editorial Team · Updated August 8, 2026

Belgium is live on Travelog with two cities: Brussels, whose Grand-Place was inscribed by UNESCO in 1998 for its eclectic blend of architectural styles, and Bruges, whose Historic Centre followed two years later in 2000, recognized under three separate criteria including its living traditions.

Brussels and Bruges earned UNESCO recognition two years apart, 1998 and 2000, for genuinely different reasons: Brussels for one square's eclectic blend of architectural styles, Bruges for an entire canal-laced historic centre still tied to living traditions. Both cities and their landmark pages are live now.
