10 Nature & Parks in Ghent That You Shouldn't Miss

February 22, 2022 Nobuko Falco

Belgium's fourth-largest - and most beautiful - city is home to a quarter of a million people and a flourishing flower export trade. An important port, Ghent's city center is a pedestrian area that is like a museum to early Flemish architecture and a testament to the city's medieval might. Impressive Gothic sites, such as dramatic St. Bavo's Cathedral and the Castle of the Counts, inspire awe. The works of Flemish masters are housed in the distinguished Museum voor Schone Kunst.

Really nice area to go to get some nature just outside the city. In the spring many birds nest here and they have a nice bird hide to be able to watch them with some information on the species. Great place for a walk!
