Walking along the River Leie in Ghent, sitting on a restaurant terrace or simply lingering on the shore has a special charm. There is a lot to see here!

The Leie (French Lys, Latin Legia) is a river that runs in France and Belgium. It rises in the municipality of Lisbourg (Flemish: Liegesboort), in the French department of Pas-de-Calais, generally drained in a northeasterly direction and flows for a total of 202 kilometers in the city of Ghent, in the Belgian province of East Flanders, as the left tributary of the Scheldt.

These two waterfront promenades stretch between Michael's Bridge and Gravensteen Castle. They are among the most beautiful in Belgium. The port of Ghent used to be here. Larger ships could sail up to here via the Leie. Old houses are located on both sides of the Leie, which were first renovated for the 1913 World Exhibition.

The place to be where past and present come together.
Wonderful to stay here.
Looking forward to what is to come in a historical context...
Just enjoy the waterfront.
