👍👍 Our private tour with BeerSecret was amazing. We learned A LOT about Belgian beers and our tour of the L'Annexe was really fun. We had a great time talking to the owner there. Her recommendations were spot on and we can't wait to go back to Belgium. Liselot was super personable and a joy to hangout...

Historically the building was owned by the Free Skippers from 1530. The facade is the works of Flemish architect Chistoffel van den Berghe...

Sint-Baafsplein
Tourist attraction
👍👍 If you come from the direction of Gent Dampoort station, you pass by the cathedral of St. Bavo to get to the square. The beautiful square is an introduction to the magic that the city of Ghent offers. On the eastern side of the square is the cathedral, and on the western side rises the Belfort Tower...

Museum Arnold Vander Haeghen
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Guangdong export wallpaper, silk texture, roughly the content is about the imperial envoy going south to patrol the river. This set of wallpapers was purchased by a Belgian homeowner in 1771. It has a clear chronology. It has just been renovated and is now preserved in its original location and in i...

Onze-Lieve-Vrouw en Sint-Pieterskerk van Gent
Catholic church
👍👍 A big church which you can see from the giant square in front. Worth seeing if you're around. The funny fact was that there was an culture event inside rather than a mass - which is cool.

Monument Jan Frans Willems
Historical landmark
👍 Visiting the Cathedral of Saint Bavo in the direction of the Belfort bell tower, there is a pedestrian plaza and in the middle there is a monument, at first we took photos of it and then we saw which character it was that was in this privileged location. A monument on a granite pedestal dedicated to...

Jan van den Bon
Restaurant
😠 I don't quickly write a negative review, because I know what impact it can have and that it will be on the internet forever, but the statements made there are everything. It is a beautiful restaurant, delicious food, creative layout of the plates, but really the worst hostess I have ever experienced...

Parkbos Vallei van de Rosdambeek
Park
👍👍 Verrassend mooi park dichtbij Gent. We zijn er kort door gefietst. Veel struikgewas en bomen. Er is een grijs kiezelpad voor fietsers en enkele passen toegankelijk voor de wandelaar.

Hof van Rijhove
Museum
👍👍 Een oase middenin de stad. In de tuin kan je wat rusten en je mag ook de vruchten plukken van de fruitbomen. Er zijn ook tijdelijke tentoonstellingen in de crypte, in dit geval filiprottiersart op Instagram en Facebook.
