I spent one semester here at HOGENT University and had the opportunity to experience all the advantages and disadvantages of this city. It is a big student city where you meet a lot of young people and it is alive at night every day. Thanks to this, I had the chance to find this city's hidden corners, introduce them, and give you tips if you decide to visit Ghent.
1) Belfry of Ghent

In the middle tower, called "Belfort van Gent", you can buy a 5 euro entry to the observation deck where you can experience a spectacular sunset. It is a tower that dates back to 1313 and its uniqueness is the golden dragon placed on top of the tower, from which fire shoots during the annual festivals.
2) Graslei
