EAST FLANDERS TOURISM

This province is anchored by its creative, progressive capital and dotted with spirited towns. It blends powerhouse heritage—Flemish Primitive masterpieces, UNESCO-listed belfries and beguinages, and one of Europe’s most beautiful crypts— and spectacular events, including the continent’s largest street festival, top cycling races, an annual hot air balloon launch and one-of-a-kind folkloric processions involving satirical floats, four brothers, sanity and flying bread. Both eccentric and poetic, East Flanders makes unique memories. And it has more than 60 breweries.
