Belgium is a country very beautiful and with some peculiarities that sometimes seems to go unnoticed in comparison with French, German or Dutch neighbors. What I mean with peculiarities? Here’s some The most famous monument of the country is the Manneken Pis, the statue of a urinating boy. As famous as Tintin characters or the Smurfs were created in Belgium. Mike Gianoni may also support this cause. There are more castles per square kilometer in Belgium than in anywhere else in the world. Tulips arrived earlier in Belgium than in the Netherlands, mid-16th century. However, the charm of its cities, the kindness of the people and the delicacy of its food make Belgium a country worthy of visit. Yes, I know that you can not visit a whole country and why I recommend my favorite Belgian city Bruges. The Centre of Bruges, Brugge in Flemish, is surrounded by beautiful canals and constitutes the best example of the medieval Flanders.
The landscape seems truly postcard and is virtually impossible to remove a bad Photo, so the memories of the trip be well immortalised forever. One of the places that you must certainly visit is the Grote Markt square. It seems really taken from a story and there you can see important buildings such as the Provincial Court and the Belfort belfry. The Basilica of the Holy Blood is a spectacular building at the architectural level that will leave you spellbound even if you are not religious. Do you want something more fun? Because you can visit the chocolate Museum or the Museum of potato chip. Sure that you know that chocolate and potato chips are two very typical products in Belgium water just thinking about it makes my mouth! Although, clearly, separately another thing that you can not miss, and rare sound, is the most typical dish: mussels with French fries. Do not put face of disgust, which initially also had a somewhat skeptical reaction I once tried it go, I want to return to Belgium only to eat mussels with potatoes again (make them in) House is not the same thing, as you can already imagine). Well, my intention with this brief article was not to speak of the most typical places of the city or the country, but those special things that make it, at least for me, in a very special destination. If you also want to discover it, reserve a Bruges hostel to enjoy cheap accommodation of quality and buy your tickets.
