What to do in Bruges? There are a lot of possibilities for walks or cycling tours and cultural activities.
In the period you are here, there are two wel-known music festivals in Bruges :
The ‘Musica Antiqua-festival’ and the ‘Moodfestival’. Both of them include also some free concerts in their programmation ( See ‘Exit’, out in Bruges)
The nearest coastal area is Zeebrugge, 15 km from here.
Bruges is a nice city with a lot of possibilities, but interesting for a one or more daytrips are also Ghent, Brussels, Antwerp : resp. ½ hour and one our with train or car.
In Bruges there are a lot of good brasseries and restaurants. In most of them you can also eat something : ‘t Park (Astridpark), ‘t Putje (Zand, tasty lunches), Nomad ('t Zand), Cranenburg ( old café on the market), café Vlissinghe ( the oldest café), L’ estaminet ( Astridpark, very good spaghetti), Du Phare (near the Dampoort), The Republiek (beside cinema Lumière in the St Jacobsstraat).
If you are looking for the more better and rather expensive restaurants, we can advice ‘Chez Annette (nearby, Visartpark, O50/311189), the Rocquefort in the Langestraat ( 050/334113) and the Refter for a lunch ( 050/444900).
