Wollestraat (A on Map 2)


From Dijver road, if you go straight, it is Rozenhoedkaai and if you turn left, it is Wollestraat. This Wollestraat is easily to distinguish with lots of stores all the way to market place. Also, there is a bridge with a statue in this street that connects between Eekhoustraat and Wollestraat.

If you walk to the first shop on the left toward the Market Place, a cervejaria or brewery called 2be.

Rozenhoedkaai (B on Map 2)


This spot is the most famous to take pictures at. If you google Brugge, you will see lots of pictures which were taken in this spot. The picture is a hotel called as Relais Bourgondisch Cruyce and Belfry tower in the background.

In front of the Vismarkt, there is a road that connects to Stadhuis and Basilica of the Holy Blood. This road is called as Blinde-Ezelstraat. This road is very unique as you can see a statue above the road.

From Stadhuis, you walk toward Market Place and you will see another open square with a statue on the middle and a tower called as Belfry of the Brugge. During my visit, there was a Christmas Festival with lots of shops and ice rink.

When you are visiting Belgium, one of the list to try in term of food is Belgium Fries. In the market place, there is one small restaurant that serves hamburger and fries. It is really good. The restaurant has small seating area on the second floor.
