A stunning piece of European culture, beauty, and history. Be sure to visit both the ground level and the first floor; they are both interesting and impressive in their own distinctive and different ways. In the church on the first floor, you can see a vial holding a piece of cloth with the blood of Jesus Christ on it. Free to visit the church, small fee to visit the treasure room. I didn’t do the latter so I can’t comment on that part. #valentinescape #awesomepic

Day trip to the city of Bruges
It’s a very chilly and rainy morning but we still made it to the city of Bruges! There’s a long walk of beautiful greeneries before you can actually reach Bruge. And before that, there’s the Lovers’ Bridge! Bruge itself is a huge circle, so it’s easy to walk anywhere. It has many canals here lined up with medieval houses and it’s also dubbed as the “Venice of the North”. Due to the amount of canals, there’s also many “canal tours” one can partake in, there will be a guide to tell you about the history of Bruge as you traverse from canal to canal. #belgium #Bruge The main attraction here is the Belfry of Bruges. There’s also many churches to visit like The Church of Our Lady and Basilica of Holy Blood. Do give Bruge a visit and you will be in awe at its beautiful architectures. Unfortunately pictures do not do it justice.
