• To learn more about Utrecht’s history as a religious center, visit the Museum Catharijneconvent

Ghent is best enjoyed by aimlessly wandering along its endless cobbled streets or blissfully breezing through the canals by boat. The city is as picturesque as nearby Bruges, but with fewer tourists.

•  Check out the St. Bavo Cathedral.

• Enjoy lively evenings in medieval Ghent, thanks to its large student population.

   

• Relax by the canal-side at one of the many bars and cafes.
