🏰 Why Visit Bruges?

If you’ve ever dreamed of walking through a medieval painting, Bruges is your dream come true. Cobblestone lanes, winding canals, colorful market squares, and dreamy brick houses — Bruges feels untouched by time.

🌟 Top Things to See and Do in Bruges

Market Square (Markt)
The beating heart of Bruges, surrounded by colorful guild houses and the iconic Belfry Tower. Climb the 366 steps for breathtaking city views!
Belfry of Bruges
A medieval bell tower that has stood since the 13th century. If it looks familiar, it starred in the movie "In Bruges"!
The Canals ("Venice of the North")
Take a boat tour to see Bruges from its most enchanting angle — drifting under stone bridges and past secret gardens.
The Beguinage (Begijnhof)
A peaceful courtyard and UNESCO site where women led a semi-religious life in the Middle Ages. In spring, it's a sea of daffodils.
Church of Our Lady
Home to Michelangelo’s Madonna and Child — the only one of his sculptures to leave Italy during his lifetime.
