35 Photos of Bruges, which invite you to visit this fairytale city in Belgium

It had been many years since I had visited the Flemish city of Bruges, riding a Belgium, and I was somewhat afraid 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 re-discovered one of the most beautiful cities you can visit in Europe.

A good reflection of its great attraction is the large number of tourists that flooded its streets, even though my visit did not coincide with the peak holiday season.

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

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

Most beautiful and interesting places in Bruges

Therefore, to fully enjoy its charms 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.

All the market squares and the adjacent plaza Burg They are the nerve center of the city and where various monuments or places to visit are concentrated, such as the Town hall, Basilica of the Holy Blood or the Bell tower which I have yet to climb on my next trip.

Bruges also concentrates a great artistic wealth, specifically works by the flamingo primitives that you can contemplate, above all, in the Groeninge museum or in the old building Hospital of San Juan, 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 sculpture by Michelangelo, specifically, in the church of our lady.

Walk through the Canals of Bruges

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

And in this regard the most notable is the one known as Saint Boniface bridge, but of course also the so-called Rosario dock (rozenhoedkaai), the most famous and photographed corner of the city.

Of course, apart from the monuments or artistic corners, I can tell you that what you will like most about Bruges are the store windows.

The Lace and craft chocolates They are its main protagonists and well justify a route through the shops of its most popular shopping streets.

In relation to lace, perhaps you know that Witches It is considered the cradle of bobbin lace, which you can see during the visit of the new Lace Museum, which I advise you to coincide with the demonstrations that take place every day.
