Beautiful place and it indeed looks like a fairytale city. We went once by car and once by bicycle, the weather was good but be aware, the place is always packed, even thi we went on May and October! Only day it was okayish, was two weeks ago when we went night time, there was people but nowhere near daytime. Food not cheap but then, nothing is cheap in Belgium. A must-see in my opinion.

Felt very safe even walking alone at night! Stayed in a mixed dorm hostel and also felt safe. Food was very delicious but a little expensive. Definitely get the museum pass!! And try free walking tours
