This church is not simple at all, the 12th century building has more than 800 years of history, the tower in the middle is very powerful. The church can be visited for free, you can see many statues, very historical value.

St. Bavon's Cathedral is a Catholic cathedral in Ghent, Belgium, and traces of ancient Roman architecture can be found in the basilica's basement. In the summer of 1566, members of the Calvinist sect visited the Catholic church in the Netherlands, smashing stained glass windows, smashing statues and destroying paintings and other artworks they believed to be idolatrous. Only the original altar was preserved.

Ghent is a medieval city with a strong atmosphere. The ruins of the medieval synagogue, the ruins of the ancient city, and the solemn cathedral attract a large number of tourists. The University of Ghent, founded in 1816, is the center of Flamen literature. The "worship of the Mystery Lamb" in St. Barber's Church is known as the masterpiece of the 15th century flamenco painting art.

No tickets, go in and stay quiet, can not bring food, drink in. The children's coke is asked to be placed outside. Seeing the silent lamb is 4 euros, in the morning, the basement and the church are free. There are almost no Chinese, and there are fewer Chinese teams coming to Ghent, and I haven't seen it all the way. To Ghent and Bruges is absolutely more beautiful than Brussels. There is no photo of the church in the phone. Send a few photos of Ghent. It is so beautiful.
