Would you like to get beautiful photos of Ghent with the old guild houses reflected in the river? Then look for the Sint-Michielsplein square, go to St. Michael's Bridge and enjoy - first the views, and then your own masterpiece photos : ) By the way, there is a pier nearby, from which boats depart to explore the city from the water.

So, along the embankment there are two old streets of Ghent - Graslei and Korenlei. One is the street of herbs and vegetables, the other is the street of grain. The names of the streets were given by the harbors, in which there was once a brisk trade. Now it's hard to imagine, but in the old days, along the banks of the Lys, there were marinas, to which ships moored with goods from all over the world. Today, the authentic guild houses smell of antiquity and peace - the most pleasant place for a walk!
