In reply to Tomas. Greetings! This trip feels like a million years ago right now. I'm so grateful for my time in Belgium!

Ghent can get pretty crazy during Gentse Feesten 🙂 But I still prefer it over Bruges as it is less touristic where people actually live, work and study. But don’t get me wrong, I agree that Bruges is also a must visit when in Belgium. Greetings from Belgium! 🙂

In reply to Rachel. I'd pick Bruges :) But that might be because I got to spend more time there.

I am planning a trip to Europe this summer and am trying to whittle down destinations to take it as slow as I can. If you had to pick, would it be Ghent or Bruges?

In reply to Naomi. I heard great things about Antwerp. I'm sure I'll return to Belgium someday, and I look forward to checking it out!

Oh yay, this made me so happy! I live about 15/20 minutes away from Bruges and like half an hour from Ghent. What you said about both cities was so wonderful to read and they’re easily my 2 out of 3 favorites cities in Belgium. If you ever return, make sure to say by Antwerp as well! You will love that city, I’m sure.

If you haven’t visited Amsterdam, you MUST! They say it’s similar to NYC, but I’ll say it has a lot more charm in it, with the asymmetrical houses and the canals. An absolute romantic if you walk down the canels at night! I’m looking forward to visiting Belgium next week after reading about it from here! 🙂

In reply to Marcello. True story: I had to Google Wroclaw to figure out what country it was in. I've never heard of it! Clearly, my European geography could use some work :)
