Ghent
Monday 18 October 2010
Ghent boasts that it has more listed buildings than the rest of Belgium put together. This claim to architectural fame is backed up by beautiful waterways, quaint cobbled streets, and speciality restaurants tucked away in back streets in this wonderful medieval town. Take a stroll through Ghent’s history with its backdrop of tiny houses overhanging the River Lys with their intricately carved stonework or climb 90 meters to the belfry of the Cloth Hall and see the whole of the city in one go. Includes return travel by coach and Channel crossing.
