One step into the 'Vlaeykensgang' (Pie alley) and you're carried into another time and another world. Even the sounds of the modern city fail to penetrate to this jumble of alleys and passageways. Those who know it come here to experience the sense of peacefulness when the cathedral carillon is playing.

Address: One of the entrances is at Oude Koornmarkt 16
The Vlaeykensgang or Pie-alley is easily missed, it really is an alley. You enter through a door on the Oude Koornmarkt number 16. The Vlaeykensgang is a 'protected heritage' site. Still in its 16th century shape, it is narrow and twist and turns along little restaurants, including the famous Sir Anthony Van Dijck, which once had a Michelin star. Apparently the owner got tired from Michelin's fussing and transformed the place to a bistro/brasserie, which of course still serves excellent food. Not to be confused with the Van Dijck Ice Cream Parlor on the Grote Markt!
