One-day trip in Bruges 布鲁日一日游

When we were in Belgium, we spent one day in Bruges. It's really convenient to get to Brugge from Brussels by the train. By the way, trains in Europe are quite nice.

Bruges, also known as 'Venice of the north' in Europe, is famous for its canals, cobbled streets and medieval buildings. It is also said that this city has the most Michelin stars per capita. We were quite lucky cause we caught a nice weather.

This is the first picture I took when I was just off the train. It feels like standing in the middle of an oil painting. Though there are tourists on the roads, everyone seems to be so afraid to disturb this beautiful view, so you can feel the wind, the fresh air, the quiet atmosphere, like your soul has been washed.

When walking towards the city centre, there are so many rivers and bridges on the streets. People here never speak loudly. Considering those religious status seen easily around every corner, this whole city has a holy spirit.

We spent the whole afternoon waiting for climbing the famous Belfry of Bruges. Since the Belfry is really tall and narrow, there are a limited number of people can climb every 30 mins. Once you stood on the top of the Belfry, you gonna feel that all the waiting time spent deserves. The whole city is under your feet. It feels like you are overlooking an ancient city, across the river of history.

The grand Stadhuis van Brugge is in the back of the Belfry, which also deserves a tour. Since we were really tired after climbing the belfry, we didn't spend too much time wandering around. Instead, we went directly to the restaurant with 1 Michelin star we've booked before the trip to have a decent meal. Frankly speaking, it's just like a normal meal you can have in a nice restaurant. I will talk about this meal for the next time.

Well, Bruges is a nice city that deserves one or two days to take a tour~ Please try to pick a sunny day ;)

我们在比利时游玩的时候，花了一天去布鲁日。从布鲁塞尔去布鲁日特别方便，火车很快就到。顺便说一句，欧洲的火车真心不错哈哈~

布鲁日在欧洲被称为“北方威尼斯”，而且据说是人均米其林星星最多的城市。我们去的那天还蛮幸运的，难得遇到个好天气。

我一下火车就拍了上面那张照片，那一刻觉得自己仿佛置身于油画之中。虽然路上游客很多，但是仿佛每个人都不愿意打扰到这景致，于是站在那里可以清晰地感受到风，感受到空气，感受到安逸的四周，感受到灵魂的飘动。

朝市中心走去，一路上遇到很多运河和桥，一派“小桥流水人家”的诗意。而且这里的人似乎很少大声说话，加上几乎每个转角都能看到的宗教雕像，整座城市都呈现出一种圣灵之感。

我们花了一下午的时间在钟楼那里排队等着爬楼。因为布鲁日的这座钟楼实在是太高太窄，每半小时只允许那么几个人进去，实在是花费了很多时间在底下等待。但是当你站在钟楼顶的时候，会觉得这一切等待的时间都是值得的。整座城就在眼底，如同隔着历史的长河，在俯瞰一座古城。

著名的布鲁日市政厅就在钟楼的后面，也是值得去逛一逛的。因为我们爬完钟楼实在是太累了（体力略差），所以也没花太多时间在城里晃荡，就直接奔去之前预定好的一家米其林一星餐厅吃饭去了。本来是满怀期待的，但是也没有太惊艳，感觉这水平在英国找一家不错的餐厅都能吃上，甚至还远不如伦敦一些大热的餐厅。等以后有机会再仔细讲讲这次米其林一星的体验吧。

总的来说，我很喜欢布鲁日，觉得这个城市值得花一两天小玩一下，不过一定要找个好天气。。。😜
