Traditional Courtesy

Throughout Belgium, visitors will find the local people unfailingly helpful. This is a conservative country with a strongly Roman Catholic religious tradition, aspects that make people courteous yet reserved. The language divide lends a certain rivalry to relations between Flemings and Walloons, yet such cultural diversity seems to make most Belgians amenable to and interested in visitors. The people may seem busy and preoccupied, but they will respond politely and matter-of-factly if you ask for advice or information about their country, which is, after all, a distillation of the most significant aspects of old and new Europe.
