Workation in Ghent: the essentials

Around 1300 Ghent was one of the largest cities in northern Europe, and its later decline left an unusually intact centre at the confluence of the Scheldt and the Leie, around Gravensteen castle and the Graslei. St Bavo's Cathedral holds the Van Eyck altarpiece. The city of about 270,000 is still a port and a major university town, which keeps the population young, and since 2017 a traffic plan has kept most cars out of the core, so cycling is the natural way around. Coworking is easy to find, trains run directly to Brussels, and Brussels Airport is about 56 km away. For ten days in July the Gentse Feesten take over the centre, day and night.
