Zalige Kertfeest - Merry Christmas in BelgiumSandwiched in between Germany and France, little Belgium celebrates big with not one, but two major holiday traditions.

In Dutch-speaking Flanders, there is St. Nicholas who is the bearer of holiday toys and candy, while In French-speaking Wallonia there is Pere Noel, who also rewards little boys and girls for being especially good during the year.

Everywhere are the traditional Christmas markets - featuring the aroma of Belgian waffles and other fresh-baked holiday breads and cookies filling the air - along with holiday lights shows, music and street caroling.

Around the Web, check out more facts, photos and information including major attractions, foods and recipes, traditional customs, and what else heats up as the weather turns colder this holiday season in Belgium ...
