The Markt
On the Market square in Bruges you'll hop in for a carriage ride. This is the place where the coachmen wait. The square is surrounded by many colorful houses with stepped gables. This square is located in the heart of the historic city center. On the south side of the square is one of the most famous monuments of the city, the 12th-century Belfry. Ride along this impressive tower while marveling at the imposing Provincial Court and the old post office while sitting in the carriage.
Arentshof
Ride through the entrance gate of Arentshof, a small park in the heart of Bruges. Enjoy the view of the Church of Our Lady and the Palace of Gruuthuse. The Arends Garden contains bronze sculptures of four knights representing the modern apocalypse, symbolizing death, war, revolution and famine.
Boniface Bridge (Bonifaciusbrug)
The boatman named this bridge the kissy kissy bridge. It's a romantic spot indeed! Take in the charming canal and the wooden houses along this tiny bridge and build memories! It dates back to 1910 but blends into the historic surroundings so well! It's like a fairy tail!
Basilica of the Holy Blood
In a corner of the central Burg Square, is the 12th century basilica Of the Holy Blood. Its dark Gothic facade is boasted with gilded statues. The gothic stairway was added in the 16th century, to connect two chapels: the lower Romanesque Saint Basil Chapel and the upper Gothic Holy Blood Chapel with the colorful stained glass windows.

Almshouses Rooms Convent
This is a gem! Enter this small, whitewashed almshouse and discover the cozy courtyard. These precursors of public housing were established from the 14th century on. The corporations or guilds built these houses for their poor elderly members.
