Yes we’ve got industry as well. :rolleyes: We can’t make money on beer and chocolat alone. The Canals around Ghent are dirty indeed, but we’ve got some nice looking canals too. In the provinces of Limburg and Antwerp.
I dont dispute some are very good, but from my experience living on the Belgium canals going from North to South for 6 months, my memory is still with the water literially bubbling with pollution. The further south the better the quality. I very much liked Namur, mainly because of the cablecar trip to the castle.
