Mons Region
Mons, the capital of Hainaut, enjoys a particularly attractive landscape. Just a few minutes are enough to get out into country which in places has been shaped by the epic mining of previous centuries, and in others is enhanced by green countryside. The programme includes: museums, country walks, unusual discoveries and not forgetting an impressive number of craftsmen who give pride of place to the land.
