The map of Ghent
At 51.1° north latitude, Ghent reveals a striking medieval street plan shaped by the confluence of the Leie and Scheldt rivers. The waterways fan out through the historic centre, creating a network of canals lined with guild houses along the Graslei and Korenlei. The imposing Gravensteen castle and the three towers of the belfry, Saint Bavo's, and Saint Nicholas's punctuate a remarkably dense urban fabric.
