Portus Ganda

Ganda, as Ghent was originally called, arose at the confluence of the Leie (Lys) and the Schelde (Scheldt). On that site there is now a marina for passing boat traffic: “Portus Ganda”. The Lower Scheldt has today been restored to its former glory. Bridges and parks, cosy pavement cafés and a wonderfully restored art deco swimming pool all make up one of Ghent’s beautiful (new) little corners. (You can not compare with Nyhavn in Copenhagen, but we did our best.) Portus Ganda is located less than a kilometre from the heart of the city. #Ghent
