Bruges: Night street with bicycles on cobblestones
A narrow, cobblestone street in Bruges, Belgium, is illuminated by a single streetlamp at night. The historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage site, features well-preserved medieval architecture, with brick and plaster townhouses lining the lane. Bicycles, a common mode of transport in the city's car-restricted zones, are parked along the street. The presence of standard European road signs, including a no-entry sign and a warning for cycle traffic, indicates the city's traffic management priorities.
