Brugge is another great tourist city located in Vlaams Brabant, or Flanders. Brugge is probably known more for its tourism than Ghent. Brugge is rooted by its canal system and it's ancient buildings that make for a really amazing ensemble. Brugge is known as the Venice of the north because of all the canals running through the city. Tourists can take canal boat tours throughout the city, getting a first hand look at the city while enjoying a historical tour guide. One of the great things that people can find in Europe is the sense of age, how the buildings are still standing from the 15th and 16th centu
ries, and how people really get a feel for the medieval quarters. Brugge does exactly that with its cobbled stone roads, and ancient buildings. Like many tourist cities, Brugge includes a beautiful old cathedral full of amazing history. In this cathedral, one can find the only statue created by Michelangelo outside of Italy. One of my favorite things to eat when in Brugge is their wurst stands or shops. It's a simple light snack, but extremely tasty. I personally suggest their wurst that are wrapped in the croissants.
