• Basilica of the Holy Blood - The Basilica of the Holy Blood (Heilig-Bloedbasiliek) presides over the central plaza known as the Burg or Burg Square. The church is famous for the crystal vial kept inside that is reputed to contain a drop of Christ’s blood brought back from the Holy Land by Dietrich of Alsace in 1149 on his return from the Second Crusade. Each year in May, this sacred relic is carried through the streets of Bruges in the Procession of the Holy Blood.

Bruges and Ghent, two quaint municipalities in Belgium, are within a short train journey from Brussels. In an ideal scenario, both Bruges and Ghent would command their own day for touring. But if time is of essence, it’s possible to explore both in a single day.

We journeyed through Bruges and Ghent in a day, starting from Brussels. It was a full and bustling day, but thoroughly enjoyable. For an optimal experience, it’s recommended to start early. Bruges, being the more frequented of the two, tends to be heavily crowded by midday. So, it’s better to reach Bruges in the early hours to avoid long queues.

During this day trip, you can wander through enchanting streets, relish waffles and chocolate, enjoy panoramic views from two bell towers, embark on a canal trip, and explore an ancient fortress. Here’s our detailed itinerary through Bruges and Ghent for your pleasure!
