It can not be said that this city is fundamentally different from the rest of the Belgian corners, but it has so much interesting and surprising that tourists will not be bored. Only one museum there is a great many, and these museums are not like all the typical expositions.
Attractions of Ghent in Belgium
If to you traditional exhibitions seem very boring, then the Museum of Modern Art is the place where the impressions will be the sea. Permanent exhibitions there are represented by the works of such famous figures as Andy Warhol and Francis Bacon. But even this did not become a piece of the museum. From time to time there are held absolutely unique exhibitions, which ordinary people may seem somewhat shocking.
Unlike other museums in Belgium, the Ghent Design Museum, it will also leave a lot of memories in your memory. For anyone who, even though sometimes in dreams, designed the design of his house, both new and old collections will be interesting. All styles of design - from eclectic to modern - existing today, you can "feel" it right in the walls of the museum.
Honestly, the city of Ghent in Belgium is surprising and amazing with its contrasts and approach to the presentation of history. What is worth only the Museum of Dr. Gislen. Why is it so unusual? Well, firstly, he is located in the walls of a former psychiatric hospital. And secondly, in addition to the history of psychiatry, you can look at works of art created by the hands of former patients of the clinic.
What else interesting can you see in Ghent?
But the city of Ghent in Belgium will not surprise you with museums alone. Among the classic points of tourist sightseeing routes in Ghent there is always a trip to the castle of Belgium Gravensteen. This is a real fortress, similar to those described in fairy tales. When it was built, at the same time, two goals were pursued: on the one hand, it was a building to ensure the safety of residents and to avoid the threat of an attack, and on the other, to demonstrate the greatness of the graphs. With the course of history, the castle was gradually upset and changed its appearance, but greatness has been preserved to this day.
University of Ghent is also considered the pride of Belgium. The history of the university is satisfied. It was taught first in French, then in Dutch. At one time within the walls of the university was the focal point of resistance during Nazi Germany.
To confuse the Ghent Town Hall is simply impossible with other sights of Belgium, because even the exterior of the building is radically different and simply attracts the eye. This is a unique combination of the Gothic style with elements of the Renaissance. Want to see the luxury and grandeur of Ghent and Belgium as a whole, embodied in stone, then you are right here. In short, the city is able to please even the most demanding tourists: on the one hand - it's ancient castles and buildings, and on the other - unique and not at all similar museums and unexpected places.
