Old, picturesque houses, little cobbled alleys, narrow bridges, the gothic church... The Groot Begijnhof breathes an atmosphere of peace and quiet, of a life almost withdrawn. Unique because of its size, and beautifully restored, it attracts thousands of visitors each year. Rik Uytterhoeven leads us through it striking buildings and reveals its secret corners.
