We traveled northeast from Paris through the city of Reims in the Champagne-Ardenne region. This city has many interesting things to offer (I will tell you about the city of Reims next time). We stayed here for one night before leaving France and heading to Belgium. The distance from Reims to Bruges in the Kingdom of Belgium is almost 300 kilometers. Bruges is a city that has been forgotten on the pages of history for more than 500 years. A city that still retains its original architectural integrity, with almost no changes. A city that has been selected by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. We will visit this place...

Standing on the ground in northwestern Belgium, it was almost noon. The atmosphere was peaceful, with people mainly traveling by bicycle (though not as many as in the Netherlands, which will be discussed in the next chapter). During the spring season here, the weather is considered quite hot for Europeans, and it was hot for us as well. However, it was a dry heat, so if you weren't in direct sunlight, it felt pleasantly cool. This is why Europeans tend to dress more attractively during this time, as they only have about two months of sunshine per year, with the rest of the time being cold and rainy.

The entrance to the city is shaded by trees and adorned with charming little flower gardens.

Bruges, a city with a history spanning over 1200 years, was once a prominent port in Northern Europe. Its coastal location facilitated trade and prosperity, making it a bustling hub of commerce. However, the rise of Antwerp and Amsterdam eclipsed Bruges' significance, leading to its decline and eventual abandonment. For 300 years, Bruges flourished, only to be forgotten for the next 500.


Central Square...

In 2000, UNESCO recognized the architectural beauty of Bruges, which had remained unchanged since its golden age over 500 years ago. The city was awakened from its long slumber, and with the help of the European Union, it was restored to its former glory. Bruges became a world-class tourist destination, the Venice of the North, attracting millions of visitors from around the world each year.








Enjoy every perspective…

The charm of Bruges lies not only in its beautiful houses, streets, and canals, which are a blend of Baroque, Flemish, and Renaissance styles, but also in its renowned chocolate and beer. With over a hundred chocolate shops and more than 500 types of beer, one could easily find themselves tipsy and full of chocolate after a visit.




There are many chocolate shops...


There are also instances of "horse manure praising the city."

Exploring Bruges' atmosphere offers various options. Stroll through its alleys, capturing picturesque views. Opt for a stylish horse-drawn carriage ride or cruise along the canals for a comprehensive city experience.



A boat trip offers a different perspective of the city...

All of this information is readily available through various media channels. We will now discuss the feelings of tourists from Thailand who have traveled across the globe to experience this location...

All angles are truly covered…

Impressed and fascinated.



This is a McDonald's that is very comfortable to sit in.

In reality, we only had about 3 hours in Bruges, which is admittedly very little time to experience the beauty of this World Heritage city. However, we made the most of it, walking through almost every nook and cranny, soaking in the European art scene, whether it was Renaissance, Flemish, or something else entirely. Honestly, I don't understand it, but I think it's beautiful. It has a sense of order. How did people build houses and cities hundreds of years ago? It looks charming, harmonious, and magnificently constructed.

Leave no stone unturned…

The time has come to bid farewell, and it remains uncertain whether I shall have the opportunity to return. The journey here was fraught with expenses, but I hope that one day, if fate permits, I shall revisit this place. For I believe I have fallen in love with Bruges.


Goodbye, Bruce.

Next time, we will explore the charming small town of Reime in France…
