A LOT OF HISTORY, CULTURE AND VIBRANCY FOR A CITY OF 250,000
I felt safe
at all hours in Gent Belgium.
I stayed in docklands
area transforming from industrial to hipster and felt safe walking its gritty
streets.
I was five minutes
from the Dampoort train station.
I was a 20
minute walk from the center of the city.
A LOT OF HISTORY, CULTURE AND VIBRANCY FOR A CITY OF 250,000
Gent Belgium’s famous towers, spires, churches and St. Michael’s Bridge from the Leie River.
The Flanders city of about 250,000 is halfway between Bruges & Brussels.
I highly recommend staying in Gent vs. Bruges.

Gent
Belgium’s majestic architecture and history from the West Bank of the Leie
River.
The Flanders

It features
low cost, high speed transit connections to both.
One of the
most bike-friendly cities in the world, its 2017 circulation plan drastically
reduced car through-traffic and prioritized cycling infrastructure.
