Bruges is a rather small city with a very big historical value.

Bruges is located very close to the North Sea (15 km), the historic cities Gent (50 km), Brussels (100 km), Antwerp (100 km), Amsterdam (300 km), Paris (300 km). I can say that the Dutch border is at 20 km, the French border at 50 km ... just to say that Belgium is no that big ... Ypres (Ieper) and Diksmuide are interesting for who is interested in the visiting the world war one sites and Flandres fields museum.

What to do in Bruges.
When your interested in the European culture -and I think you are- there are a lot of buildings and museums to visit.There is the https://www.boudewijnseapark.be/en/ for the kids. There is also a nice animal farm https://www.visitbruges.be/en/kinderboerderij-childrens-farm-de-zeven-torentjes for small children.
Bruges is a very nice medieval city which is also nice to stroll and shop, have a beer, buy chocolates and eat fries.

There are very nice cycling opportunities around Bruges (around Damme, up to Sluis in Holland etc.).

We are very close to the coast (Blankenberge, Oostend) for those of you who enjoy to spend time at the seaside.
