305 kilometres of ski slopes of all levels of difficulty and 200 kilometres of exclusive deep powder snow runs make Ski Arlberg a unique winter sports resort. The five villages of Lech, Zürs, Stuben, St. Christoph and St. Anton am Arlberg open their doors onto the fascinating world of the finest powder snow and majestic Alpine peaks, of ample variety and a unique sense of freedom. In winter 2016/17 the new Flexenbahn between Zürs and Stuben/Rauz will be opened, thus providing a link for the entire Arlberg skiing region - making it possible to easily reach all Arlberg skiing locations on skis. This makes the Arlberg skiing region the largest continuous skiing area in Austria, making skiing and skiing holidays even more versatile and comfortable!

Step into the shoes of the leading Baroque artist of his era. Rubens and his family lived in this palatial setting for well over 25 years and it is here that the artist created the lion’s share of his work. Here he entertained Europe’s nobility and Royalty and stored his impressive art collection in a beautiful art room. The charming garden, the creators’ workshop and the fabulous collection draws hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the world.

In the late 1800s, a passionate collector Fritz Mayer van den Bergh amassed an amazing art collection. He purchased paintings by Peter Brueghel for a pittance, and managed to beat major museums purchasing stunning medieval sculptures. Mayer van den Bergh had an eye for the best quality in almost every genre. After his death, his mother finally managed to make her son’s dream come true: she built a museum, which showcased his collection. Today, the museum stands largely uncharged: it is still a museum of one man... and his mother. Highly recommended in the Great smaller museums of Europe.

If you visit one museum in Antwerp make it MAS. The 60-metre-high museum tower has become a new focal point in Antwerp. Here, the city and the port meet in every sense of the word. On the roof of MAS, you can enjoy a 360° panoramic view of Antwerp.
