I have to say this for Brugge. It is one of the most picturesque cities I have visited. Utterly charming!
There are so many charming shops along the main boulevards. Many antiques, lace and of course, they are known for their chocolates!
I love the crest above this door.
The views are beautiful with green trees, lots of green grass, the architecture and the swans! Lots of them! They have horse drawn carriages if you prefer to ride.
Another popular mode of transportation is a river boat tour.
I didn't know this, but the cartoon series by Herge (from Belgium) became the blockbuster movie Tin Tin !
The famous Madonna is in one of the local cathedrals here. It was in the movie Monuments Men. It was taken by the Nazis and then the Americans were able to recover it and return it home, where it belongs.
I would highly suggest a visit to this beautiful and enchanting town. You will not be disappointed!
