Charming medieval town in the Flanders
region of
Belgium. Also spelled
Bruges depending on whether you speak
flemish,
Dutch or
French. Often called "The
Venice of the North".
Boasts some fantastic architechture, mazes of canals, and the only Michelangelo sculpture found outside Italy - The "Madonna and Child" in Our Lady's Church.
Perhaps the most beautiful city in Europe, for the reason that it's not yet completely overrun with tourists.
