Canals, chocolate, and a perfectly preserved medieval center
Explore Bruges with Wexplo, an AI audio guide that narrates the Belfry tower, the canals of the Venice of the North, and the medieval trade history that made Bruges one of Europe's wealthiest cities. Today its UNESCO-listed center is one of the most beautifully preserved medieval towns in the world.

Bruges is small enough to walk in a half day but rich enough in history to fill a week. Wexplo's GPS-triggered stories catch the details you'd otherwise miss — why the canals silted up and preserved the medieval city, where the Flemish Primitives painted, and how chocolate became a Bruges trademark.
April to June or September for quiet canals and comfortable walking. December for Christmas markets.

Walk to the Begijnhof early in the morning before tour groups arrive. This 13th-century courtyard of whitewashed houses is one of the most peaceful spots in Belgium, and Wexplo narrates the beguine women who lived here for 700 years.
