Review & FAQ:
Korenmarkt is a busy square lying between the Lys River and St. Niklaas Church. One of the city’s most popular places to people watch, the expansive terrace area is home to cafés and eateries. Early risers may want to grab a coffee from Mokabon, a wildly popular coffee shop, before exploring the historic buildings surrounding the square. There are numerous bars, restaurants, and terraces that are often filled with students and tourists, especially during summer. Although cars are not allowed in the square, travelers should expect to see plenty of bikes, buses, and trams.
