Ghent boasts magnificent monuments from all periods of history. Some of them, like the impressive Belfort, have been placed on the Unesco World Heritage List. However, what drew me to the city was the Ghent Altarpiece by the Dutch painters Hubert and Jan van Eyck. Admiring the masterpiece, also known as the "Adoration of the Mystic Lamb", in one of the chapels of the cathedral of St. Bavo was an unforgettable experience for me.
