Top 10 Things to Do in Bruges
Bruges is medieval Europe preserved in amber — a compact Flemish city of canals, cobblestone lanes, Gothic spires, and gabled merchant houses so perfectly intact it can feel like a living museum. Yet beneath its fairy-tale surface thrives a real city famous for extraordinary chocolate, world-class beer, and some of Belgium's finest art.
