Gent has Medieval Touch
By Gagan Makin
Gent is recognized as one of the largest cities of Belgium and possesses some great attractions for the visitors. With a population of more than 250,000, this city offers fabulous atmosphere for both business and leisure travelers. A little smaller than Antwerp and Brugge, Gent has got the status of being one of the most important city of Flanders and Belgium.
It is nice to see that the medieval image of the city is still preserved. Modernity pervaded throughout the city has not overshadowed the reflection of medieval time. The moment you land in the city you find the wealthy Flemish culture and commercial success. However, you cannot overlook the modern Gent city. An important harbor exists in the city. This is a favorite spot for organizing the “Flanders Technology Fair” because of its central location.
It is also known as the Flower city of Belgium. Abundance of variety of flowers around the city is produced by the flower peasants. It is a worldwide exporter of beautiful flowers. The successful flower show Gentse Floraliën draws the attention of many of the tourists from all across the globe. Architectural beauty is no way behind the natural assets of city Gent. Citizens of Gent are called as stropke.
