Brugge or Bruges, called the Venice of the North.

by Waalewiener - last update: Jan 18, 2003

Provincial Government Palace in Brugge.

Provincial Gov. Palace.
Brugge or Bruges is in the north of Flanders (Vlaanderen), it used to be called '' Bruciam ''and it was a very important City for Trade
in Northern Europe fom the 13 th till th 15 th Century.because the architecture is so well preserved Brugge (Bruges) is today one of the most exciting tourist attractions in Europe. I think that Brugge is THE most beautiful old (Medieval looking ) City in Europe even nicer than Delft (second choice) the city I was born.
This is of course my personal opinion. Brugge (Bruges) is a must see .

The middle part part of the tall church tower.

400 feet is a lot of church , hard to photograph, it must have taken years to build it.

In this picture is the Church of our Lady.

The Church of our Lady , the top of this Church has a 400 feet Tower, it is the largest such brick construction in the world. This church is so tall that it is hard to photograph.

 Thank you for visiting my Venice page. I'm visiting with much pleasure your "Venice of the North" page; are you like me a chocolate addict?
VeronicaG Wed Sep 27, 2006 20:43 UTC
 Your Brugge page has two things I would like to sample: the excellent chocolate and the magnificent lace this country produces. I also enjoyed the lesson on lace (Thanks,Lori)--creating it must be very hard on the eyes...
