The best photos of Namur aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Citadel of Namur and Cathedral of Saint-Aubain will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Jardins du Maieur for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
The capital of Wallonia, set at the confluence of the Sambre and Meuse rivers beneath one of Europe's largest citadels.

Namur attracts visitors for history and nature, and Citadel of Namur and Cathedral of Saint-Aubain and every landmark doubles as a photography opportunity when you know where to stand and when the light is best. A photography-focused walk pays attention to reflections, leading lines, and street scenes between the landmarks. Hidden photogenic spots like Jardins du Maieur reward those who wander off the main path.
Walk along the riverfront to the confluence, then climb to the citadel — or take the cable car up and walk down through the old town.
April through October. The Wallonia Festival in September brings music and events to the citadel.
