It’s lovely to stroll through the city centre in the evening. From Sint-Michielshelling, you have a magnificent view of the three towers.

If you’d prefer to stay in the heart of the city, this is the place for you. This is the historic centre of Ghent, where there’s always a lively atmosphere. Along the Graslei and Korenlei, you’ll find old stepped-gable houses such as the historic ‘Cooremetershuys’, which dates back to the 13th century. From here, you can explore Ghent’s inland waterways by boat. The guide will tell you more about the city’s origins and history. Once back on dry land, you can enjoy a spot of shopping in the pedestrianised streets and settle down in a cosy little cafĂ©. As you stroll across the Korenmarkt towards Sint-Baafsplein, you’ll come across historic and contemporary landmarks of which the city is justifiably proud.
