Louvain is known as a student city but has very nice places to visit as well. Just think of St. Peter's Church and the impressive town hall on the main square, or the prestigious museum M and the bustling OPEK. Do you like greenery and tranquillity? Then take a look at the Botanical Garden, the oldest in Belgium, with playful art projects and an idyllic fruit garden. Or get lost in the alleys of the Beguinage and check out the houses in sandstone. Delicacies from Louvain are the 'Leuvense Fonskes', which are chocolates with the image of 'Fons Sapientiae', a local statue representing the source of wisdom. You can also try ‘Lovense’ plum syrup, Meerdael sparkling wine and 'Leuvense Tripel'.
