Buda Island

Highlight • Settlement

Between the two branches of the Leie River in Kortrijk lies the lively, hip Buda Island, where you'll find numerous cafés, restaurants, and shops, as well as an entire art center. Not to mention Buda Beach—who needs Bali or the Bahamas?

Our tip: Be sure to cycle across the wave-shaped College Bridge. It's fun!

The Sjouwer Monument

Highlight • Monument

The De Sjouwer monument was erected in 1974 in the LAR industrial zone (Lauwe-Aalbeke-Rekkem) on a hill formed after the excavation of the E17 there and in honor/memory of the many West Flemish cross-border workers who went to do seasonal work in France. The largest peak therefore points towards France. The E17 and its many industrial zones meant that they may now have to rotate the monument in honor of the many French people who now work in the region.
