There is lots to see here whether its the beautiful canals, sightseeing, churches, museums, town squares, shopping, and of course Belgium is renowned for its lace and chocolates although I dont really ever eat chocolate!
We had never been to Belgium before and were certainly not disappointed. I especially loved the architecture the buildings are so beautiful.
Everything is within easy walking distance as it is a very compact city, or you can have a carriage ride or a canal boat trip to see the sites. Another alternative is to hire a bicycle.
The photograph above is taken of me and my son Joe whilst we were waiting for a canal boat trip.
- Pros:Such an easy city to explore
- Cons:Cannot think of any
