Tongeren’s Great Market is the lively main square of Belgium’s oldest city, best known for hosting the largest antiques market in the Benelux every Sunday. Surrounded by cafés and historic facades, it's a vibrant spot to explore and relax.
Next to the square stands the Basilica of Our Lady, a stunning Gothic church dating back to the 13th century. It features impressive religious art, a UNESCO-listed belfry, and an archaeological museum (Teseum) with Roman and medieval finds.
