Getting Around
In Belgium, distances are short, with a
wide choice of routes – even the tiniest
village is easily reached. Brussels sits at
the hub of several major highways such
as the A10 and the A1 (which link the
capital to the country’s principal towns).
The fully integ rated public transport
system has frequent train services and
a comprehensive bus network.
