Ghent is the capital of the province of Flanders in the Flemish region of Belgium. Located between Bruges and Brussels, it is a real discovery for the traveler eager to find beautiful images to treasure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When choosing a city in Belgium to visit, Ghent is a very nice option to add along with Brussels <\/a><\/em><\/strong>and Bruges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Renting a car is one of the options for getting around Belgium, and in our case that is what we did. The train is also a very good option given the short distances. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here I will repeat what I told you in Bruges, if you can, stay one night, that was our choice, because although it is not as touristy as Bruges, during the day there are a lot of people, but at night it is almost literally empty, and seeing it illuminated is worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
