Embankments Graslyai and Kornlyai

Grasley, Korenlei, Koornle
Belgium, Ghent
The Grasliai and Kornliai embankments are located on the banks of the Leia River in the city of Ghent. The name "Graslyai" means "street of vegetables and herbs", "Kornlyai" - "street of grain". Along the embankments are guild houses, each with its own unique history.

Would you like to get beautiful photos of Ghent with the old guild houses reflected in the river? Then look for the Sint-Michielsplein square, go to St. Michael's Bridge and enjoy - first the views, and then your own masterpiece photos : ) By the way, there is a pier nearby, from which boats depart to explore the city from the water. So, along the embankment there are two old streets of Ghent - Graslei and Korenlei. One is the street of herbs and vegetables, the other is the street of grain. The names of the streets were given by the harbors, in which there was once a brisk trade.
