Lunch at Venezia Del Nord provided a delightful break before we explored the bustling Belfort square and the iconic Rozenhoedkaai. Although we missed climbing the Belfry, the stunning views and rich cultural experience made it a day to remember. Bruges left us eager to return, with even more Belgian cities still to explore.
