Tournai
Tournai is a city in western Belgium, near the French border. It's known for the huge Cathedral of Notre-Dame, with 5 towers and a rose window. Nearby, the Grand Place is a triangular square lined with bars and restaurants. It's dominated by the 12th-century Belfry of Tournai, with views over the city. Opposite the belfry is the Romanesque St. Quentin's Church, and behind that is the medieval Red Fort tower.
