Hi everybody,
last week I was in Bruges in Belgium with my friend FLO!It is very nice city but it was so cold and we did not have to much time(practice) to see everything!Anyway we were walking around,made some photo's,have lunch...and some shoping too :-)!I will tell u something about Bruges and also u will see wery nice photo's!
The town of Bruges is unique!The town is dominated by fifteenth,sixteenth,seventeeth and eighteenth century houses,and great number of magnificent buildings are reminscent of the town's unsurpassed flowering during the Middle Ages.The history of Bruges is very intresting and it will take me a long time to write all of that so if u go one day to visit Bruges u can by a book about Bruges and read everything about that beautiful city!The 14th century was Bruges' Golden Age(cloth industry) but in 1845 half the population of Bruges had to beg for a living.From the 19th century till now Bruges is very intresting for the turist!British tourists were charmed by the beauty of Bruges and its authentic medieval atmosphere!In Bruges there is always that very special,almost intimate atmosphere!To expolore Bruges on foot is real treat!
Market square,the whole town is dominated by the Halls and Belfry!The 83m tower symbolises the power and the love of freedom of the burghers of medieval Brouges!To enjoy the panoramic view of Bruges,one has to climb 366 stairs(who is in the good shape :-) ).One the way up u will discover a lot of beautiful things(it is on on u to finde out more)!After there is Government palace and the post office building and they r Gothic Revival!Then Town Hall where is the Gothic room...and a lot of other monuments and church!The most beautiful thing for me is the canal or "rei" around the city!U must to follow the the canalas to discover picturesque spots!They say that Bruges is Venice of the North!What else to say just go in Bruges and enjoy!For the people in love this is the city for u and also there is a LAKE OF LOVE!So lovers go for it!I will bring my boyfriend :-)!Hope that u will like my story and that u will go to visit Bruges,cause this that i wrote is just a half what u will see if u go there!Go Belgium!
