Tournai is one of the oldest cities in Belgium, located on the River Escault, 10 km from the French border. Tournai is famous for the immense Cathedral of Notre-Dame, with five imposing towers and a lovely rose-shaped window. The Grand Place in the city center is a spacious triangular square surrounded by restaurants and bars. The square is dominated by the magnificent 12th-century Belfry of Tournai, which offers views of the entire area. Across the belfry is the lovely Romanesque St. Quentin’s Church, and just behind it is the imposing medieval tower known as the Red Fort. Tournai has two fascinating museums – the Museum of Natural History and the Museum of Folklore. Ecopark Adventures offers different levels of zip lining adventures as well as a view of the beautiful surrounding nature.
