Wiki Loves Monuments is an international photographic competition to promote historic sites around the World through Wikimedia projects (mainly Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, and Wikidata). Everybody can participate. This year Belgium participates again. You are encouraged to submit any photos of monuments in Belgium between 1 and 30 September. By submitting your photos to the competition, you share your heritage with the rest of the world. We explain below how to participate, what you can win and what monument sites are eligible. Why participate?[edit]Participate in Wiki Loves Monuments, the largest photography competition in the world, and help Wikipedia document monuments and heritage buildings. Participating is fun! By photographing and sharing images of heritage, you can explore more about Belgium heritage and learn about it. It's a nice challenge to improve your photography skills, and you can win nice prizes.
