Spend some time in the beautiful city of Ghent

Ghent, often referred to as the “hidden gem” of Belgium, boasts a rich tapestry of history, culture, and architectural marvels.

Here are some highlights:

• Gravensteen Castle: Dominating the skyline of Ghent, Gravensteen Castle is a medieval fortress with a storied past. Built in the 12th century by Count Philip of Alsace, it offers visitors a glimpse into the city’s medieval past, with well-preserved dungeons, battlements, and a weapons museum.
• Graslei and Korenlei: These picturesque quays lining the banks of the River Lys are lined with beautifully preserved guild houses dating back to the Middle Ages. The area is perfect for a leisurely stroll, offering stunning views of Ghent’s medieval architecture reflected in the tranquil waters.
• Saint Nicholas’ Church: Another architectural gem of Ghent is the imposing Saint Nicholas’ Church, located in the heart of the city. This Gothic masterpiece features soaring spires, intricate stained glass windows, and a magnificent interior adorned with works of art.
• Ghent’s Belfry: A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Belfry of Ghent is an iconic symbol of the city. Climbing its 91-meter tower offers panoramic views of Ghent’s skyline and the surrounding area. The belfry also houses a carillon, which chimes melodiously throughout the day.
• Graffiti Street: For a modern twist on Ghent’s rich cultural heritage, visitors can explore Werregarenstraat, also known as Graffiti Street. This ever-changing alleyway is a canvas for local and international street artists, showcasing vibrant murals and graffiti artworks.
• Ghent’s Culinary Scene: Ghent is a paradise for food lovers, with a thriving culinary scene that celebrates both traditional Belgian cuisine and innovative gastronomy. From hearty Flemish stews and crispy frites to artisanal chocolates and craft beers, there’s something to tantalize every palate.
