Antwerp is and always has been one of the major cities of Flanders, the Flemish
speaking part of Belgium.
Situated on the banks of the river Scheldt, it has been a centre
of commerce and culture since the Middle Ages.  The Antwerp diamond industry, for example,
can be traced back to the 15th century. Its international port on the North Sea is one of
the largest in Europe.
At half an hour's drive from the Belgian capital Brussels,
headquarters of the European community, it lies at the cross-roads of international
traffic.
Antwerp is much more than a thriving center of trade and diamond
industry.
