Ostend, also known as the Queen of Seaside Cities in Belgium. This seaside resort by the North Sea combines the grandeur of the Belle Epoque with the artistic flair of James Ensor and his many successors. Both the Beaufort art triennial and The Crystal Ship street art festival have left an indelible mark on the city. This makes Ostend an artistic, contemporary and lively city today, without compromising its identity.
