TERVUREN. Originally, the Royal Museum of Central Africa chronicled Leopold II's private holdings and colonial ventures in the Belgian Congo. Today, the region is known as the Democratic Republic of Congo, and the museum broadly instructs visitors about the entire African continent. Sculpture and art, colonial-era firearms, animal dioramas, and displays on the environment and desertification educate visitors about many of Africa's issues. Allow yourself time to stroll the magnificent grounds.
