Brussels seeks UNESCO heritage mark for puppetry, flower carpet

Brussels is looking to protect two of its historical traditions: rod puppetry and a 1,680-square-metre flower carpet rolled out every second year in front of the Belgian capital's city hall, by granting them the UNESCO intangible cultural heritage status. "Those two things are really part of our heritage, of our identity, they're part of our folklore, and we want to make sure they are preserved for the future," said the city's state secretary for heritage, Ans Persoons.
