Ghent's Belfry Offers a Historical Vantage Point That Reveals the City's Legacy

            From the Belfry's vantage point, Ghent's skyline captivates, melding architectural eras harmoniously. Amid the panorama, St. Nicholas' Church spire graces the scene. To the left, a hint of Church of Saint Michael's tower emerges, while to the right, the former post office's tower stands. Now housing shops and a luxury hotel, it's a modern touch in the city's historical tapestry - Belfry, Ghent, Belgium
