They also describe the architecture of the building, the gardens and grounds surrounding it, the artistic heritage it contains (furniture, work of art, objects d'art, rtc.) and the way of life it promotes. The political, social and cultural role of Belgium's embassies is not forgotten either: the authors describe meetings with heads of business, the exploration of local economic, culural and social realities and the quest for a permanent dialogue between the Kindom of Belgium and the country in question".
