The EuroSouvenir 0 Euro program began in France around 2015 and expanded rapidly across European tourist sites — Oberthur Fiduciaire, one of the few security printers with the legal authorization to produce items in the Euro format, prints the entire series. Each note is technically legal tender in the sense that it replicates all physical security specifications of a circulating Euro banknote, including the holographic strip, yet carries a face value that guarantees it will never be presented at a till.
The Japanse Tuin in Hasselt is one of the largest Japanese gardens in Europe outside Japan, opened in 1992 as a gift from Itami, Hasselt's Japanese sister city.
