The longest and oldest market in Europe

On my way back from Brussels, I stopped by the town of Liege to check out what I heard was the longest and oldest market in Europe. They were not joking about the "long" part man...the market was over a mile long!

Derek and I walked the whole time we were in Liege, from the train station to the market, and back again. It was a total of at least 10km through the city. The interesting thing, was that when I went to class two days after the trip, a classmate from Belgium told me that Liege is actually the most dangerous town to walk in as there are a lot of muggers and thieves. Haha...if I had heard that before I went to Liege, I surely would have taken the bus man! Thank God that nothing happened while I was there!
