Oudenaarde
Tapestry production made Oudenaarde famous across Europe from the 15th century onward, with the craft reaching its peak in the 16th century and continuing into the 18th. This Belgian town in East Flanders, a short distance south of Ghent, sits on the water with a walkable, photogenic centre and serves as a well-placed base for cycling through the Flemish Ardennes.
