    Walk in the historical center. Visit the castle (Gravensteen also with a video guide) watch the painting "De rechtvaardige rechters" (from which one has been stolen long times ago and never found back with 100 of theorys where it could be) in the Sint-Baafs Catedral Visit the fascinating museum "Huis van Alijn" (don't need to understeand dutch) Make a boattrip in the city center Visit the Museum for Beautifull arts (museum voor schone kunsten) and also the "SMAK" (museum for actual arts)

    Overpoort is a nice place to go out at night for young people. Also very popular place during the week for students during the year.

    Where: Overpoortstraat, Gent

    The cultural centre 'Vooruit' is also a nice place to stay for a cultural evening of theatre, concert, party, ... or just for a drink at the café for a good chat with friends: lovely place!
