Ghent (notes)
Get In
Take the train in. You can take a tram to the city center (tram 1) or you can walk if the weather is nice. Travel on a weekend for the near 50% discount.
To See
Gravensteen
Ghent Altar Piece
Eat/Drink
Solid food at 'T Oud Clooster. Also free wifi, which was a blessing. They have nice indoor/outdoor seating.
A truly bizarre but interesting bar at 't Velootje Bar Peculiar. Check it out for a quality beer. He gave us a large bottle of 9% beer, so don't plan on driving home.
