Since the birth of the renowned Emperor Charles V in 1500, the area has been known as Prinsenhof. Before that, it was called &#8216;Hof ten Walle&#8217;. This medieval treasure, located in the city center, consists of many narrow streets and canals. Here, you can also admire the statue of Emperor Charles, a gift from the Imperial City and former Spanish capital Toledo. It was inaugurated at Prinsenhofplein in 1966.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Begijnhof<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In Belgium, there are generally many Beguine attractions. These are neighborhoods where Catholics lived as singles. Ghent even has three different ones: the Small, Old, and Large Begijnhof. The Small Begijnhof is officially called the Our Lady Ter Hoye Begijnhof and is part of the World Heritage listing &#8216;Flemish Beguinages&#8217;. It&#8217;s interesting to see how these singles lived amicably in certain neighborhoods. These are peaceful areas with occasional courtyards where the Catholic church naturally takes center stage.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-29657\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/16171552\/Begijnhof.jpg\" alt=\"Begijnhof\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/16171552\/Begijnhof.jpg 800w, https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/16171552\/Begijnhof-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/16171552\/Begijnhof-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/16171552\/Begijnhof-585x293.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Bijlokesite<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A cultural center where you can find the Conservatory and the School of Arts.
