Bruges, Belgium: Shopping
Antiques and lace should top your shopping list in Bruges. Have a good look around to compare quality and prices and beware recommendations from guides as they will probably be on a cut from the shop in question. That said, there are some lovely boutiques in town and some bargains well worth seeking out.
British visitors will no doubt need little encouragement to beef-up their channel hop with a visit to a local supermarket. Belgian beer is top tasting and great value, as is the chocolate. Petrol (gasoline) prices are substantially lower than the UK (and, at press, lower than France too) so fill up your tank before you return.
