Bruges is easily the quaintest city in Belgium you can visit and these are some of the best things to do in Bruges when there.
I visited for the weekend and it became one of my favourite small cities in Europe.
The Best Things To Do In Bruges
Get on The Canals

Taking a boat around Bruges canals is a great way to see the city and its architecture and get a feel for being on the water.
Small canal tour boats can be found in numerous places around the canals and they will take you for a Bruges tour to see the old city from them.

One of the most popular places for a photo in Bruges.

Walk The Streets
The canal boat is fun but just walking around the streets gets you up closer to the city vibe and you can see all the things happening around Bruges.

Explore all the treats Bruges has to offer such as all the famous chocolate shops where you can indulge in treats of some of the best Belgian chocolates.
The chocolate shops in Bruges can be found everywhere.
