Welcome back dear scene walker.
Have you heard of the Belgian city Bruges (Brugge)?
If not, it is rich in fascinating history and one of the top tourist sites in Belgium.
The famous movie "In Bruges" was also filmed here.
The historic city center is a prominent UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It's the capital and largest city of West Flanders and the 6th most populous city in Belgium (118,500).
Bruges, together with Amsterdam and St Petersburg, is sometimes referred to as the Venice of the North.
To learn more about the fascinating past, we have to go back to the very beginning and the Golden age.
The name "Brugge" appears for the first time in the 9th century, derived from the Old Germanic word 'brugj', meaning 'to moor'.
The city is connected to the North Sea via a series of tidal channels.
It was the connection to the sea that made Bruges the trading city.
Bruges received city rights in the year 1128.
The presence of the Flemish counts made the city a fortified and powerful political stronghold.
In the 13th century, Bruges was the leading trade center of Northwestern Europe.
The world's first stock exchange was founded in Bruges.
This success continued and in the 15th century Bruges experienced its golden age.
Bruges became known worldwide for its trade in wool and cloth.
Bruges was also known for its high-quality lace fabric, a specialty that was only affordable for the wealthy.
Numerous famous painters and other fine arts flourished during the Golden Age.
Many of the prominent churches, the unique nation houses and the town hall were also completed.
In 1302, the Bruges Matins (massacre) took place against the French, leading to the famous Franco-Flemish Battle of the Golden Spurs.
The history of Bruges contains many battles, including numerous battles with another prominent Flemish city, Ghent.
Unfortunately, the tide turned towards the end of the 15th century, with the sudden death of the beloved mistress, Mary of Burgundy.
To make matters worse, Bruges' connection to the sea silted up, after which the city of Antwerp rapidly gained in importance.
Bruges never recovered and went through centuries of impoverishment, long eras of war and regime changes.
It is important to note that the city was spared from destruction during WW1 and WW2.
The resurgence of fame returned at the end of the 19th century, entering the era of tourism.
bruges became known as the mysterious place that was once the center of the world.
Thanks for watching and hope to see you in the next scene.

once again great content I watched with pleasure

[@ScenesBySevy]

Thank you, glad to hear 😊

[@pyrexAlpha]

I'm so jealous, this walk looks super enjoyable and the weather couldn't have been much bnicer for you. Old city aesthetic, the canals, and how walkable the city is makes me wish I could live there. A lot of waffles, chocolates and beer to go around it seems. One downside is how a lot of stores felt very touristy, so I'm not sure how much of a feel for the locals I've gotten. The square around the belfry is probably my favorite area in this walk. Bonus: walking into a dream 1:09:19 P.S. Do you ever get lost on the walks? Especially with all the streets and alleys you went through on this walk (Over an hour!)

[@ScenesBySevy]

Evening Pyrex, glad you enjoyed the walk, Bruges has become quite a tourist hotspot in Belgium and that of course brings opportunities for commercial companies 😋 The city has taken several measures to keep the tourist crowds bearable for the local population. The dream walk you mentioned is within the beguinage of Bruges-centre, it dates back to the 13th century, but the current white houses were built between the 16th and 18th centuries. I do get lost while filming 😅 i had to shorten the video at 01:07:43 because i walked into a dead end. To avoid getting too lost and overwhelmed with a new location, i always explore before launching the camera, it took me about 3 hours exploring Bruges to try and remember the hot spots. It's a lot easier when there are tall buildings i can use as focal points.

[@redstar1408]

@Scenes by Sevy - great video! Here is there Uber in Bruges at all or just taxis?

[@ScenesBySevy]

Thank you, Uber drivers are allowed to operate in Bruges but are apparently not that popular, there also seems to be a law to protect official taxi drivers.

[@RoyLinlin]

好美

[@HHSHjjdk123]

What kind of camera is used for photography, please?

[@ScenesBySevy]

Good evening, this scene was filmed with iPhone 13.

[@cristinaflandezvera9733]

.... Brujas es hermosa... pero eso de los carruajes no me gusta....tanto peso para un caballo...un carro con 4 personas...y el que dirige al caballo....osea 5 personas. !!!!

[@ScenesBySevy]

Es cierto, también lo hacen durante muchas horas. Prefiero caminar yo mismo, para que tu cuerpo se ejercite un poco, y un paseo en barco por el canal también es divertido.

[@RonSwansonIsMyGod]

Fkn' Bruges...

[@ScenesBySevy]

as a reference to the movie? 😅

[@user-gg5to8by7p]

It looks like Giethorn, Netherlands 🇳🇱.

[@ScenesBySevy]

Thanks, Giethoorn is a very beautiful, but also very small village.

[@user-gg5to8by7p]

I really want to become a citizen of your country very well 🙏.
