빈체‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪14‬개의 천연기념물

Thuin의 Bois du Grand Bon Dieu는 매우 다양한 분위기의 하이킹을 제공합니다. 큰 나무 아래, 길은 그늘진 구간, 더 탁 트인 길, 그리고 산책에 리듬을 더하는 작은 언덕들을 번갈아 가며 이어집니다. 대형 관광지에서 멀리 떨어진 단순하고 진정한 자연이지만, 발견할 가치가 충분합니다.

Thuin 언덕에 매달린 행잉 가든은 정말 독특한 풍경을 선사합니다. 비에스멜 계곡의 경사면을 따라 내려가는 이 테라스는 정원, 돌, 녹지가 어우러진 진정한 패치워크를 이룹니다. 이곳은 풍경을 감상하는 즐거움만큼이나 한때 이 도시 주민들이 경작했던 테라스의 역사를 상상하는 즐거움도 선사하는 곳입니다. 하이킹 중에 발견할 수 있는 Thuin의 보물 중 하나입니다.

Although the place is quite small, with its rocks, it almost feels like the Fontainebleau Forest. A rather unusual environment for Hainaut.

The Pétria slag heap, known as “Seat No. 1” was created between 1870 and 1926. It was then exploited and reworked as part of the recovery of coal shale and residual coal. Bought by the City of Fontaine-l'Evêque in 1995, the Pétria slag heap was classified as a "Natura 2000" zone in 2002. In 2020, the site became an approved nature reserve for batrachians following substantial developments aimed at protecting natterjack toads and midwife toads: excavation of temporary ponds, cleaning of sludge tanks to make them a breeding site, cleaning and clearing of the Babelone pond. https://www.destinationterrils.eu/fr/terril-du-petria

It is at the confluence of the Trouille and the Nouvelles river that this waterfall bridge was born. Originally there was a mill, which was turned into a tannery after the First World War. Today it is a bucolic place surrounded by nature.

By definition, a menhir is a vertical standing stone during the Neolithic era. The menhir of Saint-Symphorien, 2m50 high, 1m30 wide, weighing 2500 kg, also served as a Neolithic ribbon brush for flint tools. It was discovered in 1860 by Mr. Piscart, a farmer who broke his ploughshare while plowing his field, located at the end of the Violette path, on the border of Harmignies. The menhir was then excavated to stand in the park of the Maigret de Priches castle, where it remained for 90 years. On October 17, 1951, the megalith was presented by Miss Emmy Maigret de Priches to the city of Mons. At the request of the Sint-Symphorien Brotherhood, he was reinstalled on March 20, 2007 in the village. http://www.confrerie-saint-symphorien.be/?page_id=307

The bridge/waterfall was built at the confluence of the Trouille and the Rivière de Nouvelles. In the early, late 12th century, there was an old domanial mill on the site, the Moulin-au-Bois. Imagine that there was a dike on the site of the current street, a large fish pond on the site of the pasture, and that there were three mill wheels instead of one. This is what the site used to look like. In 1823 the mill was sold by the city of Bergen and after the First World War it was converted into a tannery. The only remnant of the mill that is still visible today is part of the wall along the street, just before the bridge. Still, the waterfall remains one of Hyon's most symbolic places.

Nice climb to it, and the place has not stolen its name!
