The main action takes place at the Grote Markt which is where you'll find heaps of those traditional wooden chalets offering up everything from fun gifts and festive decorations to delicious mulled wine, hot chocolate and all sorts of cheesy and fried goodies. Oh, and those classic Belgian chocolates of course. <\/p>\n

There are a few other smaller markets and festive pop-ups that can be found throughout the city's cobbled streets, so it's well worth leaving a bit of time to wander and take in the atmosphere.

Then of course the Belgian city is renowned for its gorgeous medieval buildings and canals, so you'll have plenty of time to explore, all while tucking into those world-famous Belgian waffles of course.<\/p>\n
