Mother Mary watching over
her child ... and us

by Pavlik_NL

Maybe this tip gets boring, but it's just something that should be mentioned in all Belgian town and villages. Be aware of the details when you're walking over the streets in this Catholic country. Statues of holy figures, preferably holy mother Mary, are watching over you constantly and from many angles. It's so charming and wonderful that the keep on being in the scenery. I just love this.
