Ghent is less well known than Bruges or Brussels, but it's definitely worth a visit. It's a real gem in the heart of Belgium, which at the height of its boom in the 14th century was Europe's second-largest city after Paris. Its prosperity due to the cloth industry, and its important river port is still expressed in its very well preserved architecture, without this very lively city giving the impression of being a museum.

The magnificent Flemish facades alternate between Gothic and Romanesque styles, and are reflected in the canals that wind through the city. Let us guide you through these meandering quays, cobbled streets, squares, brick houses, little bridges and impressive churches, along a route designed to leave you with luminous memories of this run.
