A new edition of this lively and informative guide to one of the finest medieval cities in Europe. This colourful and easy to read guide is packed with ideas for things to see and do during your stay in this historic city. Bruges was named as European cultural capital of the year for 2002. Bruges has been a popular tourist destination with British visitors for centuries. Today it is a short trip across the Channel by ship or train. The Euro Star trains stop at Lille where there is a direct connection to Bruges. Four itineraries are described in this book, all beginning at the Markt, two ending at the Markt and two at the railway station. These enable the visitor to spend 3-4 days in Bruges viewing all the important locations without doubling back or getting lost. Text and maps updated
