Korenmarkt

Korenmarkt Square is the main tourist square in Ghent. It is located in the very center of the city, and chances are, this is where you will end up as soon as you decide to explore the Old Town of Ghent. The name translates from Flemish as "Wheat Market": in the Middle Ages, grain was traded here, transported by river to the nearby quays. Today, it is no longer a trading hub but a pedestrian center.
