HONFLEUR, FRANCE
On the estuary of the Seine, this quaint little port and its surrounding countryside were long the inspiration for painters and poets. It's a place of great historic charm, notably around the Vieux Basin, where lofty slate-and-timber fronted houses overlook the colourful yacht and fishing harbour, and sloping cobbled streets recall 16th century Honfleur. Not to be missed are the 15th century wooden church and the Impressionist paintings of the Museé Eugene Boudin.
ANTWERP, BELGIUM
The Flanders city of Rubens and diamonds, renowned for the richness of its art and architecture, a showcase of ancient cobbled streets, medieval churches, handsome guild houses, and fascinating galleries and museums. The illustrious past of this easy 'walking' city is complemented by a vibrant modern mood, with a wealth of restaurants, inviting cafes and superb shops. Don't overlook the famous mosselen mussels and praline chocolates!
