As I write, I’m about to check out of the Hotel Notre Dame in Mari­as­traat in the his­toric Bel­gian city of Bruges. The city (Brugge in Flem­ish) used to be an import­ant hub of trans-​​European trade until its port sil­ted up in the middle of the 16^th Cen­tury, but it has retained many of its medi­eval build­ings and all of its charm. Prob­ably unfairly, Bel­gium isn’t top of the list for many vis­it­ors to main­land Europe, but Bruges is cer­tainly one of the most beau­ti­ful and friendly cit­ies I’ve vis­ited. Here is a selec­tion of some of my pho­tos of the many faces of this won­der­ful little place.

My friend and fel­low pho­to­grapher Mark Casey will have his pho­tos online soon. I will link to them here when they’re online.

UPDATE: They’re up. Please go here.
