No trip to Bruges would be complete without a boat trip on one of the town's many canals. This photo from 1997, the year we first visited Belgium, is a good example of why Bruges will always remain in my mind as the town where you only have to point your camera in any direction to get a great photo.
Here in this 1997 photo are a few of the many beautiful medieval buildings of Bruges. If you visit the city, be sure to take a boat trip on the canals.
The wonder of Bruges is that it remains much as it was hundreds of years ago as a result of losing its economic primacy to Antwerp in the 15th Century when its canals silted up. It is the only place I know where you can point your camera in any direction and be certain of having a beautiful photo! These buildings, photographed in 1997, are among the most interesting and attractive of many in the town that date from the medieval period.
