Coupure Canal & Marina

Coupure Canal & Marina, Bruges

A straight canal cut through eastern Bruges in 1751 and 1752 to ease trade toward Ghent. Once a busy commercial waterway, it is now a tranquil marina lined with workers' houses and moored pleasure boats, with a relaxed, almost Mediterranean air.
