There is a lot to see and do in Belgium's capital! It is not my favorite city though, because it is very grey and there are too many very ugly buildings.
Try the beer! There are so many different kinds of beers. I went into one pub and they had like 2 menus full of different beers. There's something for everyone, even the ladies.
This medeivel gem eludes the masses of tourists that can often make Brugge seem overbearing so visit it before it joins the ranks of must see European cities.
Take also a look at B_Caro's Oostende.
