Locking in on Enchantingly Romantic Bruges

by richiecdisc - last update: Feb 19, 2007

enchantingly romantic Bruges
Bruges is certainly no longer an undiscovered gem. While it may not be wholly embraced as a required stop on the virgin European tour ala Rome, Paris and London, it nonetheless has come a long way from its sleepy incarnation of yesteryear. Once within its magical confines you’ll wonder how it remained removed from the mainstream for so long in the first place. After wandering its cobblestone streets many proclaim it their favorite European city of all they’ve fleetingly explored. An enchantingly romantic city, it has a fairy tale quality stemming from an array of medieval buildings dotting the picturesque canals that circle the old town like a series of moats. Adding to the charm of the inspiring sights are a plethora of romantic candle-lit cafes that make lingering in this beautiful city all too enticing. So what is it that keeps this pearl in the raw from joining the league of the ranks of requisite inaugural European stops? Well, it’s likely the same thing that keeps in from becoming an oppressive tourist trap. Restrained and classy shops, cafes that need not beg for your entrance, and perhaps most importantly locals that not only do not take advantage of you but also manage to not become too irritated that their fair city is increasingly being invaded by bigger crowds on a near daily basis.

 Your comments on Brugge are very accurate, Richie. Beautiful and romantic still, though a little "Disneyland" on the other side. Great photos, and again you saw everything !
