Description“Cultural city walk”
Spend a day discovering Liège and its exceptional culture and heritage.
This one-day excursion has been specially designed for small groups of about ten people who wish to have more autonomy in their visit while benefiting from the advice, recommendations and anecdotes of a professional tourist guide.
Your excursion will begin in the luxurious setting of the modern and futuristic Liège-Guillemins TGV train station. This masterpiece of grandiose architecture was designed by Santiago Calatrava, the renowned Catalan architect. With its glass and metal vaulted ceiling, this icon of the city attracts myriad tourists and photographers, making it the most photographed monument in Liège.
Next, two exceptional exhibitions are available. You may browse the “Warhol – The American Dream Factory” exhibition (02/10/2020–28/02/2021) and relive 40 years of American history. Or visit the exhibition dedicated to the emperor Napoleon entitled ‘The man behind the legend’ (from 03.04.2021). It’s an opportunity to relive the great moments that formed his legend.
After strolling along the quays or through Parc de la Boverie, head back to the city center for a meal at the “Le Cloître” brasserie in the Museum of Walloon Life.
For the next stage of your afternoon visit, two new options are on offer. Depending on your interests and preferences, you can choose to discover the collections at the Museum of Walloon Life or take a stroll through the historic city center.
Before catching a train from Liège-Saint-Lambert train station, round out the day by tasting an authentic Liège waffle at the gourmet “Une Gaufrette Saperlipopette” shop. These are prepared in the traditional way and served warm.
Duration: One day.
