18th - 19th August 2018. In Bruges.

All the streets of Bruges have a lot of character.

Rides in a horse drawn carriage are very popular. As the driver spends most of his time talking to his passengers, it is a good thing that the horse knows the way!

We are now in Market Square.

All the buildings surrounding the square have great character.

We were warned about the tourists to be found in Bruges, and most of them seem to be here in Market Square!

The 83 metre high Bell Tower overlooks the square. It was built in the 14th century, and contains 47 bells. It is considered one of the finest belfries in Belgium.

The horse drawn buses are a slower way to look around town.

Just after 5 pm, these two are on their way home for the night.

We too have had a good afternoon of sightseeing. There are so many different roof styles.

Off again on Sunday morning, this is a floating classroom. There are many of these unusual modern art installations throughout the centre of Bruges.

The old buildings are everywhere.

The tower of the Notre Dame church is the second tallest brick spire in the world, being 115.5 metres tall.

Saint-Salvador Cathedral is quite near to it.

There is some impressive stained glass here.

Brug is the name of this sculpture, made from metal and canvas, to cross the canal here. The trip boat underneath it is one of many, giving visitors to the city another way to get around, seeing a different view to normal.

We walked back to The Puzzler along Groenerei, another attractive street.
