Ypres

Ypres


Ypres is located in west Flanders in Belgium. Ypres is also the centre of Wool and Cloth Trade, it also played a big part in WW1.


When we arrived at Ypres we stayed at the Poppies hotel which  is a bed and breakfast, it has snooker table and free internet. In the hotel the beds are ok. Very family friendly.

       


Sites To See 
In Ypres there are lots of things to visit including Talbot House where the solders went after there time on the front line to relax. You can also visit lots of famous sites that were used during the first would war like hill 60 were c got to dress up as a solder and experience what it would like to be a propper solder in the wet and muddy conditions, Croonaerts Wood were there are Germon trenches. Zonnebeke Museum which is great fun fun for adults and teenagers, it shows you pretty much evey thing that was used in the first would war. Men in Gates which is very moving because all the names on the walls are of missing solders.
As you can see there are lots of things to see in Ypres.

In Ypres there are lots of Cemeteries in Ypres including the biggest war cemeteries in the common wealth.
