Rosary pier on the canals of Bruges in Flanders Belgium

For many years I did not visit the Flemish city of Bruges, in Belgium, and I had some fear that when I returned I would not meet the expectations of the image of a beautiful city that I kept in my memory.

But it has not been that way. In my recent trip to Bruges I have rediscovered one of the most beautiful cities you can visit in Europe.

Good reflection of its great attraction is the large number of tourists that flooded its streets, even though my visit has not coincided with the most holiday season.

Witches It is a small city very easy to visit, which you can do perfectly on foot.

But it is also a city of corners, of many corners to discover.

Visits in Bruges

Therefore, to enjoy its charms well you may need several days ... or what is better, have the opportunity to return to visit it again, which gives you the opportunity to discover new corners that you have not seen on previous occasions.

The Market places and the adjoining square ofBurg they are the nerve center of the city and where various monuments or places to visit are concentrated, such as the town hall, the Basilica of the Holy Blood wave Bell Tower to which I have pending upload on next trip.

Bruges also concentrates a great artistic wealth, specifically works of the primitive flamingos that you can contemplate, above all, in the Groeninge museum or in the old building San Juan Hospital,a corner with great charm as it takes you to the atmosphere of a hospital in the Middle Ages.

As an artistic curiosity, on my last trip I discovered that in Bruges you can also see a Michelangelo sculpturespecifically in the church of Our Lady.

Canals of Bruges

The most popular way to see Bruges is to visit it by browsingby boat through its canals, where you will find some of the most beautiful corners of the Flemish city.

And in this respect the most prominent is known as San Bonifacio Bridge, but of course also called rosary pier (Rozenhoedkaai), the most famous and photographed corner of the city.

That if, apart from the monuments or artistic corners, I anticipate that what you will like most about Bruges are the shop windows.

The lace and the chocolates They are the main protagonists and well justify making a route through the stores of its most popular shopping streets.
