The city is a masterpiece itself but apart from this fact Bruges features the country's most compelling art collections and splendid museums.
The Groeninge Museum is a must. The paintings exhibited there represent six centuries and include a variety of styles. The Memling Museum is also not to be missed, with the wooden Shrine of St. Ursula. The Church of Our Lady shows the work of art created by Michelangelo. It's the only one painting to leave Italy during his lifetime.
You can stretch your legs strolling along the Belfort Markt. The place that is always crowded with locals and tourists like you. Take a ride on a horse-drawn carriage and admire the breathtaking view over Bruges on the top of the belfry.
Bruges offers its visitors over 300 varieties of beer. This diversity is also reflected in the countless establishments: from Belgian cafes to proper English pubs.
The city boasts with a busy social calendar. Don't miss the week-long Festival Musica Antiqua which takes place in early February. In July you can witness the three-day Cactusfestival with thousands of music fans gathered in one place. Those who fancy some film entertainment can enjoy it during the Cinema Novo Film Festival. This festival highlights Asian, African and Latin American films over ten days every March.
