Mirrored in a bottle of beer, Brugge is caught in a medieval time capsule, crowned forever as Belgium's most resplendent jewel, its most popular destination. Breathtaking gabled and ivied neo-Gothic buildings, 19th century cathedral spires, elaborate market squares and enchanting weeping willows serve as the perfect backdrop to its numerous dreamy canals along which swans swim languidely and boats ferry eager tourists. Visiting Brugges is walking around a live Flemish painting. And toasting the modern at its amazing brewpubs where the hours stand still as the canal waters and emotions run deep.
