Bruges: Where Time Tiptoes and Beauty Blooms

#mytraveldiary Bruges felt like a gentle whisper from the past. Its cobbled streets, winding canals, and gabled houses created a scene so picturesque, I kept wondering if I’d stepped into a painting. I wandered through Markt Square, climbed the Belfry for sweeping views, and tasted divine Belgian chocolate in tucked-away shops. The swans gliding across the water added a touch of magic, while the quiet corners offered moments of reflection. Bruges doesn’t overwhelm, it enchants. It’s a city that invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and fall in love with history, one charming brick at a time.
