RE: A treasure in Belgium - Bruges 🏰
Happy to see that you enjoyed it :-) Studied 3 years in Bruges and especially started to appreciate the less touristy back alleys and the hidden spots lake a small park between buildings only accessible by an alley.
If you liked Bruges you should try Ghent too, the same medieval center but with a young population and a lot of students that make for a lively atmosphere.
Ghent is on my list as well! Would you recommend a visit during the Gentse Feesten? I heard a few good stories about it :-)
Yes and no. Gentse feesten is a lot of fun but the city is really really overcrowded. Best would be to go first to explore the city and go to Gentse feesten a 2nd time to just enjoy without sightseeing :-) Not much fun in sightseeing with a huge hangover ;-)
Ah yes, the atmosphere must be different with a lot of tipsy/drunk people as well.
