Do you know Fosfor the Dragon? He lives on top of the Belfry and is Ghent’s brave guardian angel. He can breathe fire like the best of them, but he has some trouble taking care of his stuff. With the Fosfor the Dragon app, you will retrace the friendly dragon’s last route in search of his glasses. Along the way, you will carry out assignments and learn fun facts about Ghent. The treasure hunt is made for children aged between 5 and 12, but younger visitors can also take part with the help of an adult. The treasure hunt takes about two hours.
