Which city in Belgium has a large Diamond District?

Travel Tips
The diamond sector accounts for 8% of all Belgian exports, which means the sector is an important economic mainstay and ambassador for the country. The diamond district is located near Antwerp's Central station. A unique infrastructure has become the home to 1,500 diamond companies and four diamond exchanges. The offer is huge and fierce competition makes for razor-sharp prices. Thousands of Antwerp diamond workers actively work on a daily basis to uphold the reputation of the international quality label 'Cut in Antwerp'. A constructive vision of the future, backed by five centuries of tradition, a thorough professional training and state-of-the-art applied research vouch for the high level of quality.
The international character of the Antwerp diamond district is a paragon of universal hospitality and cultural melting-pot. Antwerp is one of the world's great artistic, historic and tourist centres and the diamond world can take some of the credit for this image. Antwerp is home to the Indian and Jewish communities, but also to many Lebanese and Armenians. Since the Eighties there has been a large influx of people from Asian and African countries. The diamond world is a multiracial mosaic of cultures.
