Haunting and Unforgettable - The World War I trenches and cemeteries in Belgium are deeply moving. The museum brings the harsh reality of war to life. Huge thanks to our guide and driver Mavliud who was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and even captured some amazing photos for us. Highly recommended!
