We walked around a lot. It was the last day of the Christmas market. They had an ice skating rink. Some type of farmer's market with fruit and clothes and other random items. My son rode the Ferris wheel and they also had a carousel and a cute exhibit (maze, games, Santa). I will return when it's not as cold and take a boat tour! Very pretty city.

It is a small town not too far from Brussels (about 30 min drive) with beautiful canal and houses…read more Taking the 40 min boat tour along the canal is a great way to see the town and photograph these picturesque landmarks! There is not too crowded comparing to other towns in Europe. It is easy walk... you won't kill your feet walking around here! There are many coffee shops and restaurants along the canal to relax and enjoy the beautiful town. Definitely worth to visit if you have a half day to spend while in Belgium.

This is Graffiti Street and it changes constantly one day to the next…read more Belgium had a bit of a graffiti problem until they gave the artists this street as their canvas to use however they wanted, so often new murals and art pop up overnight. For last Halloween they painted it grey and asked the artists keep it to a scary Halloween theme, but we were told the color and other art came back within a few weeks. There's an amazing chocolate shop here called The Chocolate Maker, so the street was part of our Chocolate Tour by Charlie Tours, but we came back for more chocolate a couple days later, only to be surprised it had changed so much in such little time. It's a must-see in Ghent and definitely worth a walk through.

Neat to see the art, however the street feels a bit sketchy depending on the time of day you visit…read moreand who is around. Watch your surroundings and just be aware. Some of the art looks amazing. Other pieces have been graffitied over, which was kind of a bummer. I'd see this if you're nearby but would not go out of my way to see this.

A bench! My kingdom for a bench!…read more What a great location to get a rest with a great view. Nice little park tucked into the many sites of Brussels. Sometimes it can be difficult to find a nice bench to rest your weary feet after a long walk. This park fits the bill. Love the fountain, very relaxing. Nice try coverage for shade and plenty of open space. Just a nice spot.
