The numerous waterways passing through the city centre all flow towards the former port at the Graslei.

The elegant façades of the buildings on the Graslei and the Korenlei represent different architectural styles. However, together they make up a unique view Ghent can truly be proud of. Each façade reflects a period in history reminding the visitor of the spirit of enterprise and the busy commercial activities of the old guilds.
