Welcome to Ghent, a stunning hidden gem of a city located in the Flanders region of Belgium. In this video, I'll show you how to spend a couple of days in this lovely little city, including showing you where Ghent is, how to get there and how to spend a couple of days soaking up the sights including St Bavo's Cathedral, The Belfry of Ghent, a beer tasting and waffle making workshop, the Gravensteen (or Castle of the Counts) and Graffiti Street.
If you're interested in the Waffles'n'Beer making workshop, you can book directly on their website here: www.wafflesnbeer.be/experience/waffles-n-beer-workshop-ghent-centre/?_gl=1*1glgzza*_up*MQ..*_gs*MQ..&gclid=Cj0KCQiAsaS7BhDPARIsAAX5cSDpG3Yeb5RKF-qqPWIm4lbUX3fYoxCunALebYpOqa2MUV8my_8w8s4aAmoBEALw_wcB
I also booked my tickets online for the Gravensteen, as these can get booked up as its a popular stop for tour groups and Belgian school trips here: historischehuizen.stad.gent/en/castle-counts
