We're locals, living a short distance from Brugge. We've never seen this city this way before. Fantastic videography capturing the beauty of Brugge and especially so with almost no tourists and without any tourist boats at all the canals act as mirrors to double our viewing pleasure. Thank you so much for this, we wish you all the best and hope that your health is soon back to full strength. Take good care. Philip & Luc

Hmm maybe not. I knew Brugge in the late 70’s and it was wonderful. Friends of mine visited in 2018 and while they found it beautiful they said the experience was spoiled by overwhelming crowds because it’s now one of the top tourist hot spots of Europe. While I could go back at any time I prefer to remember it the way it was. Of course this might not concern you, just a bit of advice 😊😊

I grew up in the center of Bruges and it breaks my heart to remember thinking it was an overrated shithole. But visiting it now every once in a while (I'm in college and live in a bigger city nowadays), I see the true beauty of Bruges and I've learned to appreciate it more. I'm glad to see others enjoy it as well! I used to hate it because there isn't that much to do for the younger generations. For example when going out, a lot of restaurants and bars are mostly catered for tourists and unfriendly towards the locals, unfortunately. Also, the huge amount of tourists can be an annoyance for the locals, crossing busy streets without looking for traffic, standing in the way to take pictures,... So if you come to visit, please keep that in mind! Be friendly and be considerate for others around you! :)
