On my way to the city of Ghent in Belgium I came accros this 13th century castle! It's in the town of Laarne, and it's one of the most beautiful and best preserved water surrounded castles in Belgium!

I arived very early and because of that, the castle was still closed, they open on 13:00 hour! That was a to long of a wait for me, so i just walked around a bit!

The entrance is already very beautiful, and because of that the castle still was closed, I could park wright in front of it!

And a half of a sculpture playing hopscotch, that's what google told me is the translation of the Dutch word "hinkelen"

This awesome long lane starts out in the village and you walk straight up to the castle!

And from the terrace, you have a beautiful view of the castle! This is so cool if you could drink a beer here with this view!

Walking around the stables to the front of the castle give you a pretty good idea how beautiful it must be inside! It was almost if I was back in the middle-ages!
