While being in the vicinity (in Tongeren, the oldest town in Belgium), we decided to check out the newly opened Hergé museum in Belgium's youngest city, Louvain-la-Neuve. The museum looked very modern and "clean" both on the inside and on the outside. We weren't allowed to take photos inside, but it was a really impressive and interesting exhibition and I learned a lot about both Tintin and his creator, Hergé.

Louvain-la-Neuve is mainly a university town. It was founded in 1972 and all the buildings reflect that architectural period. No cars are allowed into the city and they would not able to get in anyway, since it is completely closed off. There is a parking garage underneath the entire city, however — an ingenious solution.
