Traveler reviews
Rita Zustrupa
★★★★★a month agoone of the most beautiful parks in brussels. some trees are 400-500 years old. there are little hills and a beautiful scenery throughout. a romantic bridge and little animal farm in the middle of the park. this park is great for couples as it is for kids. it feels private and calm. in summer it’s a great place to escape the heat.
Renata Hanko
★★★★★3 months agoBeautiful park with a mini zoo, cafe and restaurant. Definitely a must for a nice sunny walk.
