Ghent has many prominent museums and galleries. The S.M.A.K. is probably the best-known and the most notorious. But you certainly have to see the industrial archaeology in the MIAT too. You ought to experience the wonderful nostalgia of the Alijn House. And you should see the impressive collection at the Museum of Fine Arts and the magnificent art nouveau collection in the Design Museum Ghent…
