Bruges is a city in northern Belgium designated by UNESCO as a world heritage site. Despite being a small city, Bruges offers many interesting tourist attractions that can be visited. Ranging from historical buildings, dining establishments that serve delicious food, to narrow cobbled streets that offer surprises in every corner. Bruges is known as one of the cities in Europe which is named 'The Venice of the North'. So called because of the many canals and rivers flowing through the city that remind people of Venice in Italy. Therefore, it is not complete if you visit Bruges without joining a canal tour.
By taking a canal tour, visitors can enjoy the beauty of the city from a different perspective. The price is relatively cheap, 8 euros for a half hour ride. I was very lucky because I got a good tour guide. Besides being knowledgeable and communicative, he is also fluent in guiding by using 4 languages.
A must-try in Bruges is french fries with mayonnaise. My favorite place is T Brugsch Friethuys. Apart from being relatively cheap compared to other places, it also tastes good with food choices and various flavors of dipping sauce. Do you know that French fries are actually from Belgium? Unfortunately many people think they came from France. During the First World War, hundreds of American soldiers were stationed in Belgium. During their life there, they often eat french fries. Because many Belgians speak French, the American army named French fries - French Fries.
