🇧🇪 Ghent: A Medieval Dream Bathed in Golden Light

"Where every sunset turns canals into liquid gold." ✨ 🚂 Why Stay in Ghent? Perfect hub: 30min to Brussels/Bruges, 1h to Antwerp. Trains: No need to book ahead—frequent & easy. 🌇 Must-Do Magic 1️⃣ St. Michael’s Bridge at Dusk Sit by the canal with beer + pizza, watch paddleboarders glide under Gothic arches. 2️⃣ Gravensteen Castle Rooftop 🏰 Cheaper & quirkier than the Belfry! Peek through arrow slits for framed cityscapes (your Instagram will thank you). Hilarious audio guide (think medieval stand-up comedy). 3️⃣ Belfry of Ghent 🔔 91m up for 360° views—worth the €8 if you love tight spiral staircases. ⏰ Pro Tips ✔️ Castle at 9am: Beat the crowds + soft morning light. ✔️ Night walks: Lantern-lit streets = time-travel vibes. ✔️ Local snack: Cuberdon (purple jelly candies sold at stalls). #Ghent #BelgiumTravel #MedievalVibes #GoldenHour
