Bruges, Belgium

Bruges, Belgium
http://www.flyingmonk.com/belgium.html
We traveled in the country covering only the four major cities. We started in Brussels, capital of Europe and we visited the remarkable Grande Place, maybe one of the nicest central square in Europe. After we visited most of its amazing churches and monuments we continued to Antwerpen (Anvers), major commerce center in history and also a very busy diamonds center. We visited the central square with its famous buildings of the guilds that adorned one of its side and its cathedral, the pride of the city.
From there we left for Ghent (Gent), center of commerce and guilds, where we walked around the canals in the old city, strolling through its churches and squares and enjoying a moment of relaxation admiring Graslei, an area where the medieval houses where preserved in entirety, right on the canal, that used to be the center of the city.
From Gent we drove another 30 miles and to the magnificent city of Brugge (Bruges), a real work of art, preserved like very few cities in the entire world, a masterpiece of the old times. We took a boat ride on the canals and continued to stroll on the tiny streets and alleys that crisscross the city, stopping in the picturesque squares and having a drink from one of the 380 sorts of Belgian beers.
Come with us and watch our travel video and you will never forget these places.

On the photo page is listed as Brugge. Great city.

Brugge = Dutch name, Bruges = French name. As far as i know English people use the French name.

Been there past week, was really great. Especially thanks to all the backpackers,though. Great people.
