Ghent’s fairy-tale setting includes cobbled streets, winding canals, and towering churches, but it’s the lively student population that gives the city its dynamic edge. The historic centre boasts landmarks like St. Bavo’s Cathedral, home to the famous Adoration of the Mystic Lamb painting. A boat trip along the Graslei and Korenlei reveals stunning views of guild houses, while the city’s culinary scene shines with authentic Belgian fries, delicious waffles, and traditional ‘stoverij’ stew. Whether you’re exploring its history or its trendy cafés and bars, Ghent is a must-visit destination.
