© Ville de CharleroiThe very nice pavillion of the park (1882), renovated by the "Echevinat de l'Ecologie Urbaine" has found back its original purpose : hosting concerts of regional bands and ensembles. The parks and gardens are not only a place to walk, but are also a meeting point for parties and entertainment. They symbolize social interaction, and the public concerts that are organized there take us back into history. This old tradition dates back to the Belle Epoque when such pavilions were plentiful in the city. Nowadays, about 20 concerts are organized every year in the parks. The local orchestras perform on marvellous stages to the sheer joy of the audience. ]]>http://www.belgique-tourisme.net/informations/events_charleroi__concert_in_queen_astrid_park/en/E/29732.html http://www.belgique-tourisme.net/informations/events_stavelot__six_painting_master_at_the_pays_de_liege_1875_1930/en/E/55530.htmlPAINTING50.3941925.932884Ven., 27 Juin 2008 22:47:33 -01:00Summer exhibition about artists that have marked the history of painting at the turn of the 19th and 29th century: Louis Philippet, Adrien de Witte, Auguste Donnay, Armand Rassenfosse, Richard Heints and Augustin Mambour. ]]>http://www.belgique-tourisme.net/informations/events_stavelot__six_painting_master_at_the_pays_de_liege_1875_1930/en/E/55530.html http://www.belgique-tourisme.net/informations/events_liege__200_years_tea_culture/en/E/55535.htmlART50.6466365.579809Ven., 27 Juin 2008 22:47:33 -01:00Discover a collection of precious tea pots from the 18th century to nowadays, coming from the Ceramics museum of Yingge in Taiwan.
