Bruges Introduction

The heart of Bruges, surrounded by an almost continuous ring of canals, is the best preserved example of medieval Flanders. So picture postcard perfect is the city centre, known as 'the Venice of the North', it is nigh on impossible to take a bad photograph. Vodcast of the stunning city of Bruges presented by Ben Ross.

Jules Destrooper, the Belgian biscuit maker, has paid the city the ultimate compliment and put the city's Beguinage on one of his cute biscuit tins! Not surprisingly then, Bruges is the most popular tourist destination in Belgium. Forthcoming events in Bruges.
