Ypres

Ypres (Dutch: Ieper) is in the province of West Flanders near the Belgian-French border and has just under 35,000 inhabitants. The A19 motorway makes the city easy to reach. It is, above all, those interested in history who will find a visit here rewarding. For instance, there are plenty of notable edifices to be seen, from various eras. Especially worth visiting are St Martin's (Sint-Maartenskerk) and the Cloth Hall (Lakenhalle), the home of Flanders Fields Museum, which commemorates the fierce fighting around Ypres in the First World War, which claimed over half a million soldiers' lives here alone. Accommodation is available in all categories from B&Bs to four-star hotels.
