Highlights
Welcome to the Belgian City of Ghent! Just take a look at how old, beautiful, and surprisingly small Ghent is. It once rivaled Paris, so why didn't it become one of the European capitals? Discover the answer on a captivating stroll through the city with audioguide on your smartphone.
We'll meander through narrow streets, refresh ourselves along the quays, and admire the churches and towers. I'll show you how to distinguish ancient buildings from fakes, as Ghent has quite a few of them. To avoid turning our excursion into a history lesson, I'll share city legends and stories with you. We'll delve into topics like Belgians, their penchant for folk rebellion, chocolate and fries, and their incredible ability to speak three languages. And, of course, I can't leave out Belgian beer!
Do you want to capture the best photos, acquire useful souvenirs, and cherish interesting memories from Ghent? Then download this audio guide!
