One Night in Brugge - Belgium (Part 1)

Itinerary: Brugge (Link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bys9H9hPgFspXzJ4QzhhX2U2ekE)

Brugge is a city in Belgium. The movie "In The Bruges" starring by Colin Farrell was filming in this city. This city is referred as "The Venice of the North". The day I arrived in this city, it rains heavily. The city itself is very beautiful and romantic and suitable for a couple.

The medieval town in Brugge is so small that it is possible to walk around it or with a bike. During my visit, I did walk twice around the town, the night I arrived and the morning before I left to Ghent, Belgium. I stayed in Novotel Brugge Centrum. As I arrived to Brugge Station, I walked outside following the maps on my phone (maps.me). The walk takes about 15 mins. I chose the one that passed the Minnewater Park.
