   • Discover life in medieval Ghent at Gravensteen. Also known as “Castle of the Counts” in Dutch, this incredible structure was built in 1180. Today it houses the Arms Museum and the Museum of Judicial Objects.
   • Admire the picturesque St Michael’s Bridge (Sint-Michielshelling) Perhaps one of the most picturesque areas in Ghent, it’s a great place to gaze at the surrounding architecture and down the river to Korenmarkt (Wheat Market).
   • Marvel at the beauty of St Bavo’s Cathedral (Sint-Baafskathedraal) This historic 11 century icon of Ghent was a major factor in my decision to visit.
   • Be amazed by St Bavo’s Abbey (Sint-Baafsabdij) Anyway, this abbey sure made up for the fact I couldn’t visit the cathedral. It was a very sobering feeling walking around these grounds knowing it’s history dates back to the 7 century.
