Little Waves Festival 2016, Genk
Genk, a town in Belgian Limburg, near the border to the Netherlands, might live in the shadow of neighbour Hasselt sometimes a little. Hasselt is known to many music lovers as host to the huge alternative Pukkelpop Festival. Genk was one of the centres for coal mining in Belgium…sadly the last mine was closed, so was a big branch of a car manufacturer. But Genk has loads to offer: Friendly people, a national park, a lovely city centre, interesting former mining sites, an open air museum, parks
