The Charm of Ghent's Medieval Architecture

Ghent, a beautiful Belgian city, is a true gem for art and history enthusiasts. The city is built around a medieval fortress and a castle that dates back to the 12th century. The architecture and the canals that weave through the city evoke feelings of a bygone era. The streets are full of vibrant cafes and bars that light up the city at night. I was intrigued to learn about the historic significance of the Gravensteen Castle and the Saint Bavo Cathedral. They provided an interesting insight into the city's rich history and culture. In comparison to other Belgian cities I have visited, Ghent's charm lies in its unique blend of history and modernity.
