Strawberry And Flower Lover Museums in Belgium

Mar 14, 2016
Daily

In the town of Wépion in the Wallonia region on Belgium, the Musée de la Fraise (Strawberry Museum) offers five exhibition rooms all celebrating the art and innovation involved in producing strawberries. Guided visits are available, and there’s a charming boutique filled to the brim with regional products made from the area’s revered local berries — including strawberry beer.

The flower theme continues with art. Nicknamed “The Raphael of Flowers” for his special prowess depicting roses, Pierre-Joseph Redouté has an entire museum dedicated to him. Located in Saint-Hubert, the Pierre-Joseph Redouté Museum contains many of the artist’s original watercolor paintings, prints and other objects. There are also etchings from Redouté’s work Description of Egypt. The museum is open by appointment until July, then open daily from 2–6 p.m. Afterward, be sure to visit the gardens of the Roseraie on Avenue des Chasseurs Ardennais to enjoy the mingled perfume of 50 rose varieties.

Immerse in an Invigorating Thermal Journey at Scandinave Spa Whistler

The glittering green pines and burst of jasmine lake beyond almost made me forget about the aches in my legs that slowly developed after the promised hour-long hike ran into the third hour. And, oh, there were my hips, showing up to remind me I was no longer in my 20s. I didn’t mind, though, because the vision that surrounded me during our guided walk through Garibaldi Park to Cheakamus Lake in Whistler, British Columbia, with Mountain Skills Academy and Adventures proved worthy of a thousand postcards.

A Fusion of History and Modernity Makes Bangkok a Perfect Meeting Spot

In this city of contrasts, glass skyscrapers stand behind century- old temples. Street food vendors sling steaming noodles along roadways while tucked-away restaurants serve multicourse, Michelin-level cuisine. Roadways jam with cars as jewel-toned tuk tuks whizz through the gridlock. Long considered a tourist mecca, Bangkok also makes for a dynamic, budding location for corporate travelers.

Best known to tourists for the boisterous chaos of Palermo, the views of Mount Etna from idyllic Taormina, and for that capricious volcano itself, Sicily has far more to draw travelers.
