Ghent is the capital and biggest city of the East Flanders province in Belgium.
Every year a ten day long street festival is held called the Ghent Fests (Gentse Feesten in Dutch). In 2007 it saw 1.5 million people flock to its streets. Also, every five years, a huge botanical exhibition (Gentse Floraliƫn) takes place in Ghent, attracting numerous visitors to the city.
For a medium size city, Ghent has a booming night life. There's a lot to be done at night, whether you like to go to the movies, enjoy a play, attend a concert, go to a club or just have a night out with friends at a fancy jazz bar.
Wondering around the city feels like being in a fairy tail, every turn you make on these winding roads lead to another cobbled stone street with small bridges and scenic buildings dating back as far as the 9th century.
This city is well maintained and cared for and it shows

Today, Saturday. Because our hotel was in the center of the old town I expected it to be a bit noisy because of the traffic. I can live with that, no big deal. But I hadn't thought of the cobblestone pavement, which added an extra touch to the traffic. This resulted that I thought heavy vehicles we…

And so, another day and another town to visit. I remember feeling a bit surprised and pleased at myself, at how "with the flow" I've become when it comes to travelling. It's almost become 2nd nature, to an extent where these days, the thrill and glamour has gone, and it's almost like "I've gotta do…
