Guildhalls, Canals & Chocolate

Art Nouveau Brussels and medieval Bruges, an hour apart and best enjoyed slowly.

Brussels mixes the gilded Grand-Place, Art Nouveau townhouses and the Magritte Museum with a famously relaxed café culture. It is also the place to learn the difference between a praline and a truffle.

Bruges, an hour away by train, is one of Europe's best-preserved medieval towns: cobbled lanes, quiet canals, Flemish Primitive paintings and a belfry with views across the rooftops.
