Horizontal cityscape at night view of the historic Burg square in the centre of Bruges.
Horizontal wide angle view at night of the Burg square, Bruges' most historic square, with the Gothic-styled Stadhuis (Town hall), the Heilig-Bloedbasiliek (Basilica of the Holy Blood) and the Belfry in the distance all illuminated. In the mid 9th century, Baldwin Iron Arm built a castle or 'burg' here from which it got it's name. The smaller of the two main squares in Bruges, it is the civic and religious heart of the city, which was totally cleaned and restored in the 1980's.
