A gentle day between Lier, with its Zimmer Tower and Béguinage, and Meise Botanic Garden, its glasshouses and castle.
Lier is a peaceful little town in the province of Antwerp, crossed by the river Nete and proud of its Zimmer Tower, whose astronomical clock shows the phases of the moon and the tides. Your group then wanders through the Béguinage, a UNESCO World Heritage site, where cobbled lanes wind between white houses. The afternoon is devoted to Meise Botanic Garden, a vast park around Bouchout Castle, with its ponds, remarkable trees and large heated Plant Palace, pleasant in any weather. The paths are wide and flat, with benches for a rest, and everyone chooses how far to walk. A green and restful outing, without a tiring drive.
