In the medieval centre of Bruges, also called ‘Venice of the North', you can saunter all days long in the typical streets, varied by picturesque bridges, canals and squares, watching monumental historical houses or mansions with Flemish step gable architecture. You will be charmed by the peaceful atmosphere of the Beguinage, the Lake of Love and the parks as by the artistic wealth of the innumerable monuments and the important works of art in the museums. Most museums are historical buildings and small scaled (Groeninge with the Flemish Primitives, Gruuthuse, Memling, Archeology Museum, the City Hall with its Gothic Room, the Brugse Vrije with its Renaissanceroom, O-L-Vrouw -ter-Potterie...) You will be surprised by the numerous fascinating churches: St-Saviours'Cathedral, Holy Blood, Church of our Lady, St-Walburgha's Church, O-L-Vrouw-ter-Potterie, St-James' Church, St- Giles' Church, St- Anne's Church, Jerusalem Church, English Convent, Beguinage Church...
