About Ghent
Ghent lies at the confluence of the Rivers Scheldt and Leie. This riverside location has been a key factor in the history of the city, and it's a very fascinating history. In fact, there was a time when Ghent was one of the largest and wealthiest cities in all of Europe.
The town originally grew up around two abbeys founded in the 7th century. However, the importance of river transport in the medieval period saw Ghent bloom as a center of trade. By the 11th century, it became an independent city-state. By the 13th century, it rivaled Paris in size. Some of the city's most iconic buildings date back to this period of wealth.
Trade in textiles was a huge part of Ghent's prosperity. That, and the river passage to the North Sea, fueled the town's economic growth for centuries but the good times couldn't last forever. During the Belgian Revolution when the country fought for its independence from the Netherlands, Ghent lost its access to the sea and the economy collapsed. While unfortunate for those who had to live through it, the end result is a town that remains astonishingly well-preserved. Nowadays, the medieval heart of Ghent brings millions of tourists to this Belgian city every year.
In Ghent, you’ll find places to dine, castles to discover and day trips to enjoy from this marvelous city. With so much to see, carrying heavy bags or luggage from place to place will only slow you down. See as much as possible while here and do it without carrying heavy bags. Download the Bounce app, search luggage storage Ghent, and book a place to stow your stuff.

Activities and attractions in Ghent
Bruges
Ghent isn't the only well-preserved medieval town in the region. The city of Bruges lies a short train ride to the West of Ghent, and is also well worth exploring. The quiet canals and ancient Guildhalls make Bruges one of Europe's most popular tourist destinations, and you can easily lose yourself in the bars and restaurants of the old town for a day or longer.
Brussels
The capital of Belgium, Brussels, is also easy to reach from Ghent. This truly international city is famous for its chocolate, its waffles, and, of course, its beer. It's also the home of the country's Royal Palace and parliament, and several important institutions of the European Union. Brussels is a city where old meets new, and there's always something going on in the Belgian capital.
Tournai
The city of Tournai, with its well-preserved 12th-century cathedral, is a fascinating place to explore. Approximately an hour and a half from Ghent, the city is just as beautiful as this one but since it lies in the province of Wallonia, it has an entirely different vibe. Check out its lively Grand Place or take a stroll along the many canals to experience a different side of Belgian culture.
Gravensteen Castle
