Overview of your Ghent tour:

The unique blend of old and new architecture will surprise everyone with a sense of curiosity in the past & present of Ghent. Once the medieval Manhattan due to their towering facades which dominated the centre in the 13th and 14th century. In that period the most important city in the northern part of Europe, after Paris, thanks to the cloth trade. With such an eventful past, Ghent today remains a dynamic city for both older & young people from all over the country as it is famous in Flanders for its various cultural activities. Ghent attracts more and more travelers from abroad, because this small but vibrant metropolis is a history book in a nutshell: a delight to discover by foot. Let me guide you in my beloved city where I live and work since more than half a century, my hometown from where I traveled countless times but always love to come back. I am confident that after you see and feel Ghent, you will agree.
