Inspired by the primitive Christian architecture, the Chapel of Our Lady of the Peace, inaugurated in 1966, was thought up by Léonard Foujita. This chapel is open during the summer months from May to October.

This majestic building of Beit Sheikh Isa Bin Ali Al Khalifa was once the seat of power for the ruling Sheikh, and it is one of the finest and best-preserved traditional Gulf buildings found anywhere. A marvel of architecture, the rooms are kept quite cool in the summer heat through an inventive system of draft towers. Though unfurnished, the meticulous decoration in the different rooms deserves hours of examination.

Tivoli park was once the grounds of a castle barely two kilometres from the historic centre of Mechelen. These days you can enjoy a quiet stroll here across the large expanses of grass, past ancient trees, a highly-scented rose garden, a herb garden and other delightful nooks. Now pure white again, in 1990 the famous Belgian artist Jan Fabre wrapped the castle in sheets of paper covered with ballpoint lines for which 150,000 blue pens were required! Since 1991 the mansion has housed a catering establishment specializing in parties, seminars and the like. Drinks, snacks and lunches are served to the general public in the adjoining orangery. Small children will love meeting a whole variety of farm animals on the children's farm. Other attractions include the large bee colony and the educational nature trail where signs draw your attention to aspects of the park's history, fauna and flora.

St Paul's Bay, snuggled against the southeast coast near the enchanting village of Lindos, is a haven of sun and sea. The bay is split into two coves: the southern one buzzes with activity and offers amenities like sun loungers and a café, while its northern counterpart offers a quieter, more tranquil vibe. With water so irresistibly turquoise, you'll find folks diving off nearby rocks. Whether you're a couple, a family, or a band of friends, this is your invitation to bask and snorkel in unparalleled beauty.
