Where to walk in Belgium

• Bruges (3 tours): The best-preserved medieval city in Europe and a UNESCO World Heritage site, where a golden-age cloth port fell poor when the sea silted away and slept for four centuries, so its whole medieval fabric survives intact. From the Belfry over the Market Square and the Basilica of the Holy Blood on the Burg to the silent Beguinage, the Lake of Love and the canals that earned it the name Venice of the North, the old town is a living museum. The Church of Our Lady holds a marble Madonna carved by Michelangelo, the only sculpture of his to leave Italy in his lifetime, and the Groeningemuseum keeps the masterworks of Jan van Eyck and Hans Memling, the Flemish Primitives who perfected oil painting here.

• Brussels (2 tours): The bilingual capital of Belgium and of Europe, a city built on a slope with a lower town of markets and guilds and an upper town of palaces on the hill. At its heart the Grand Place, often called one of the most beautiful squares in Europe, was rebuilt in gilded Baroque stone within a few years of the French bombardment of sixteen ninety-five, its guild houses raised out of catastrophe. Nearby the boy fountain of Manneken Pis and the glass-roofed Royal Galleries keep the small pleasures of the old city, while up the hill the Royal Palace, the Royal Museums of Fine Arts, the antiques square of the Sablon and the colossal Palais de Justice mark the town of power, whose nineteenth-century grandeur is bound up soberly with the colonial history of King Leopold the Second.

• Ghent (2 tours): The medieval giant where the Leie and the Scheldt meet, once one of the largest and richest cities in Europe, a cloth town of tens of thousands of weavers that repeatedly rose against its counts, its kings and even its emperor. Its skyline is a row of three towers, Saint Nicholas's Church, the civic Belfry and Saint Bavo's Cathedral, and Saint Bavo's holds the Ghent Altarpiece, the Adoration of the Mystic Lamb by the brothers Van Eyck, one of the most important and most coveted paintings in the world. Below the towers the old harbour survives along the Graslei and Korenlei, and in the middle of the city stands the moated Castle of the Counts, planted to overawe a rebellious town, near the Friday Market of uprisings and the giant cannon Dulle Griet.
