  The latest addition to Footprint's acclaimed pocket series is the first guidebook dedicated to one of the most happening cities in Europe. Once known as Europe's diamond capital, and its second largest port, the proud Flemish city has transcended its trading past to embrace the 21st century with bags of style and a certain nonchalance. Today, cutting-edge fashion designers rub shoulders with young artists and film-makers in the city's buzzing bars and nightclubs. Nearby Ghent, meanwhile, does little to draw attention to itself, leaving this ancient gem to those in the know.
