Ghent / Brussels / Flanders 1:9.000/1:11.000/1:240.000
Ghent is one of the most historic cities in Europe. A city of canals, it became wealthy during the Middle Ages by controlling the production of cloth over several centuries. It is full of historic buildings and desperately needs a map or one becomes lost in the narrow streets that fill the ancient city centre. However, Ghent is not all that big so we have combined it with a detailed map of Brussels, the nominal capital of Belgium and the location of the European Union HQ. It was also the site of the famous world fair in 1968, the legacy of which is the Giant Atomium. Side 2 of the map is also a new venture for us; a detailed map of Flanders region from Liege to Lille and from south of Brussels to north of Antwerp. This portion of both France and Belgium is full of historical importance and we hope to develop this artwork in future editions. For now, it is a detailed road map showing many fortresses/castles and monuments.
