The family enjoyed it. History is valuable. A few places within the castle, including the kings' throne, were blocked from my control. If allowed, I would have enjoyed sitting on it and was also looking for some costumes to try out, but it was not available. Hope they offer visitors an immersive experience in the future. Would definitely come back given the chance #mynovgetaway#awesomepic

Our Lady's Cathedral is a Roman Catholic cathedral located in Antwerp, Belgium. The Diocese of Antwerp began today in 1352 and although the first building phase was completed in 1521, it was never 'completed'. In the Gothic style, Jan and Pieter Appelmans were the architects. #mynovgetaway#awesomepic

It's a monument here. There are sculptures and paintings by Classical and Flemish painters in Rubens' villa. The gardens and the courtyard are impressive. As well as a guidebook, there are audio tours online. A free downloadable app has a tour as well. I hoped we had more time. Would definitely visit again in the future if im back in Belgium. #mynovgetaway#awesomepic

Commuting around Belgium. I love their cashless system and how easy it is to understand their routes and station. Although I had to ask a stranger to clarify all my doubts. The traveling itself is almost like an attraction in itself. It’s almost winter so the almost all the leaves have fallen adding character to the city. #mynovgetaway#thanksgiving#awesomepic

At the Saint Michael’s Church. Documents from 1105 bear witness to the presence of a chapel dedicated to St. Michael subordinated to another parish on the site. Early in the twelfth century, the building was twice destroyed and rebuilt by fire. It was known as an autonomous parochial church beginning in 1147. This church is indeed amazing from the inside and out. I love the architectural design and the interiors. #mynovgetaway#thanksgiving#awesomepic

At a cake shop in the city center of Ghent. Since it’s December, most of their desserts are all Christmas themed. It’s also crowded with people. These dessert are also very tasty. Belgian chocolates are really world class. Although a bit pricey, they’re very delicious nonetheless. Bought some for gifts to my friends. #mynovgetaway#thanksgiving#awesomepic

Around the shopping district of Antwerp. It was bustling with people since it was summer that time. walked for almost the whole day. It felt like there were endless shops in the city. 😅😂 #tripaway #tripaway

It is said that in Europe, if you want to taste the most authentic beer, you must visit the monastery. Why? In fact, as early as 1664, the La Trappe monastery in France relaxed the precepts of the monks' practice, allowing the consumption of high-nutrient beer instead of food on the fasting day, but the beer must be hand-made by the monks in the monastery. Because the monks must exchange their labor for the food they depend on. Since then, this rule has spread throughout Europe, and many monasteries have begun to emulate the brewed beer, because this guarantees the determination of the monks to practice hard, and also shows their hospitality to the guests who participated in the mass, a time monastery The name of beer has spread throughout Europe. I tasted different delicious beers in Belgium. If you are also a beer lover, don't miss Belgium!
