Lovely long weekend destination. Great architecture - look for square beyond Place de Lion ( Place de Louise Bernieries?) for interesting Flemish style frontages. Feels safe, relaxed easy going city, with plenty of restaurants through the old town. Do book in advance though or risk walking from one to another looking for a table at weekends.

My wife and I are huge book lovers and you could definitely spend over an hour in here if you speak French. They have a small English section with books priced at around £10+. A great place to hide from the rain and get lost in all genres of books.
