Hay-in-Wallonia


Back to Belgian-themed posts with a photo of the church of Redu, a small village south of Liège, in the Ardennes.

Redu is a booktown in the style of Hay-on-Wye in Wales. Almost every house is a bookshop and you can find an amazing wealth of reading material, including the complete works of Barbara Cartland in French:

At the other end of modernity, the village also features a European Space Agency station, Redu-on-space.
