In this video you'll find a perfect walking itinerary for Ghent city in Belgium, starting and ending at the train station and in a round circuit. This is the most effective way to see what the city has to offer in one day, you don't need public transport or cabs to follow this travel guide. Ghent is a must-visit city when travelling to Belgium. It has everything that Bruges offers but with fewer crowds and ever taller architectural marvels. We felt like walking around Hogwarts when we were there.

The itinerary covers the following palces :

Gent-Sint-Pieters Station
Sint-Baafsplein
Saint Bavo’s Cathedral (Ghent Altarpiece)
Belfry of Ghent (panoramic city views)
Korenmarkt
Graslei and Korenlei (main photo spot by the river)
Lunch at a riverside restaurant
Gravensteen Castle (interior + ramparts)
Patershol District (medieval alleys)
Vrijdagmarkt Square (Jacob van Artevelde statue)
Graffiti Street (Werregarenstraat)
St. Michael’s Church + golden hour view from the bridge

Tips:

-Start your day early to avoid crowds at the cathedral and castle
-Trains from Brussels run every 30 minutes
Wear good walking shoes – Ghent has cobbled streets
Most places are free or low cost, but bring cash for lunch and castle entry
