Bruges' historic city center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and boasts an exceptionally well-preserved medieval cityscape. The extensive canal system reminded me somewhat of Venice. A particular highlight is the characteristic Brick Gothic architecture. It reflects Bruges' past as an important European trading city and, with historic squares like the Grote Markt and numerous gabled houses, offers a unique visual unity.
