As part of a larger Belgium and Holland trip in the fall, I'm finding myself drawn towards spending a week in Wallonia. I know it isn't as pretty as Bruges or Ghent, and some might consider the region a bit "rough around the edges." But I'm also drawn to the beer heritage, the food (lots of Michelin Guide representation), picturesque rivers, and some interesting towns for history lovers, like Dinant, Mons, and Namur.
FYI, on previous trips we have visited Brussels, as well as Ghent, Bruges, Kortrijk, and Tournai. So, my question: Given that we have "checked off" a few of the major, obvious locales in Belgium, am I crazy considering a week in Wallonia? And bonus question -- I've already discovered that a lot of interesting places aren't on rail lines. Does being car-less change your answer at all?
