I thought that Holland was a pretty place but Belgium was just gorgeous!!
Some says because Belgium was not that important city during world wars, so somehow the ancient arquitecture is still well conserved.

Building shapes, old cathedrals and lovely chapels, antique shops, little bridges, beeeeeeer, smells, old streets, people around chocolates, very touristic of course but is so charming...I don´t blame lovers and honeymooners, really.
But, its something more than just the "intellectual air"....quiet, unpredictable curvy streets, definitly gothic! I don´t really know.

I really wanted to climb the bell tower, nothing really hard, but I could realized that the city had a charming arquitecture....a french touche, a drop of german..got it! It´s a Flemish spirit around, Flanders land..... Unique!!

Pensé que Holanda era lindo pero Bélgica es hermosísimo!!
Algunos dicen que Belgica no era una nación tan relevante en el período de las guerras mundiales, por ello la arquitectura de sus ciudades se conserva intacta.

Las formas de los edificios, viejas catedrales, antiqueguedades, pequeños puentes, mucha cerveza artesanal y tradicional, aromas, viejas callejuelas, gente con muchos chocolates, muy turistico sin dudas..pero tan encantador...No culpo a los amantes ni a los que pasan sus luneas de miel, en serio.

Pero, es algo más que solo el aire de intelectualidad que migró de Holanda y otros lugares cercanos...serenidad, calles curvilineas, definitivamente Gótico! No sé...

Realemente quería subir al campanario, no muy alta, pero solo ahí me dí cuenta de la encantadora arquitectura y emplazamiento.....el toque francés, con gotas de alemán....caché! Es el espíritu de Flandes...Unico!!!
