During your city trip, don't miss the opportunity to admire the world-famous masterpiece The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb, by the Van Eyck brothers.

Stroll through Ghent's city center and you will immediately understand the many tourist prizes and international praise. Nowhere else can you flash from the 14th to the 21st century (and back!), so quickly without even having the feeling that something is not right. According to the National Geographic Traveler Magazine, Ghent is the most authentic historical city in the world that is bustling with life.

Close to the beautiful castle of Gravensteen, you board a boat that will take you along the most beautiful places in Ghent. You will travel through time through the fascinating history of medieval Ghent and sail past historic buildings and architecture.
