The city features the 374-step Montagne de Bueren, the neo-futurist Liège-Guillemins station by Santiago Calatrava, and the Gothic St. Paul's Cathedral. Historical sites include the Prince-Bishops' Palace on Place Saint-Lambert and the Romanesque Church of St. Bartholomew. The Meuse river shapes the landscape, connecting the scenic Boverie Park, the historic Outremeuse district, and the ornate Pont de Fragnée. Covered arcades like Passage Lemonnier and the oldest square, Place du Marché, highlight the city's commercial history.
