Responsible Travel

Sitting along the shores of River Scheldt, Antwerp or Antwerpen is the most populous Belgium city. It is also the capital of the Antwerp province in the Flemish region of Belgium. You will find that it sits about 40 kilometers north of Brussels and is only 15 kilometers from the Dutch border. Antwerp's port is another significant part of the country as it is one of the most extensive ports in the world and ranks 2nd in entire Europe. The city is also known as a Global City worldwide for its diamond industry and trading. Antwerp homes about 1.2 million people in an area of 204.51 square kilometers. Apart from the worldwide recognition, it also homes many historical and culturally significant places that attract tourists from all over the world. It is trendy among tourists that seek a peaceful and fun environment.

The overall pollution levels are moderate, but the air pollution is a major one. You will find that motorized vehicles are more common than electronic cars. While visiting and exploring Antwerp, you should prefer public transports such as buses, trains, and trams as a way of moving around. These options are more affordable and also cause comparatively less pollution than other motorized personal ones.

You will find that the city is not that famous and comes under the least known cities of the world. Hence, the prevalence of local businesses is more than international restaurants, clothing stores, etc. Nevertheless, you will find some international shops, but you must avoid them as they will not help you learn more about the local culture. If you want to increase your local cultural knowledge, only interacting with locals and exploring the handicraft items will help you create a good trip.

Apart from these necessary measures, you must adopt various other eco-friendly practices like using recycled and reused items and opting for sustainable accommodation options. These measures might not feel like the best choice for tourists but are an excellent way to reduce over-spending at 5-star hotels or resorts and making your travel eco-friendly and responsible.
