Ostend, Province West-Flanders

Ostend - the Queen of the seaside resorts

With this title the city in the province of West Flanders in Belgium is identified - and not wrongly. A lively city awaits the visitor, who finds all possibilities from the hotel or the apartment to create the holiday in a varied, interesting and refreshing way.

The former summer residence of the Belgian kings can be found in Ostend, a good spa, several marinas and fishing ports and the ferry port for a seafaring to Britain - from where perhaps a trip to the British island could be undertaken. In the city simple as well as elegant restaurants take turns with romantic, picturesque spots.

In the entertainment district you can spend one or more hours as well as on the beach promenade which continues through the entire sea dyke and you also have the possibility to watch the cheerful bustle from a café or to indulge in a shopping expedition through the boutiques and other shops.

The cityscape is dominated by the churches Sankt Petrus and Paulus Kirche which were build beginning of the 20th Century in the Gothic style. Numerous museums open their doors to visitors from near and far, such as the PMMK, the Museum of Modern Art. A holiday in a apartment or an hotel in Ostend can not be long enough.
