Gravensteen Castle
This mighty stone castle with tall towers and thick walls rises right out of the city centre and was once the powerful home of the Counts of Flanders.
Gent
Gent is one of Belgium’s most exciting cities, where two rivers meet among cobblestone streets, towering castles, and centuries-old buildings that look like they belong in a storybook. A massive stone fortress called Gravensteen Castle rises right from the city centre, and nearby the Ghent Belfry stretches above the rooftops, rewarding brave climbers with stunning views across the whole city. Gent is also home to one of the most important artworks ever created, a 600-year-old painted masterpiece tucked inside Saint Bavo’s Cathedral that artists and historians travel from all over the world to see.
What makes Gent feel truly alive is its energy. Thousands of university students fill the cafes, festivals, and canal-side squares, giving the city a buzzing, creative atmosphere that mixes the very old with the very new. Every five years, the whole city transforms into a sea of colour when millions of flowers bloom across every corner for a spectacular festival that has to be seen to be believed.
