    Great place for a picnic. There seem to be lots of nooks and crannies where you can sit down on a grassy hill and enjoy a picnic lunch. Lots of good people watching to do on a weekday afternoon. There are some benches and chairs too if you’d like to sit there instead of the grass. The walking paths were well maintained and the park is clean.

    My first day in Brussels and I end up here while taking a walk. Beautiful park and a perfect place for nature lovers, family, and walking dogs. Bird photographers will have plenty of opportunities to take pictures of ducks and ducklings of different species. The flowers bloom during spring and makes the place even more beautiful!

  • 5/5 Jad B. 7 months ago on Google • 286 reviews
    Great place for a morning walk with or without a pet ! A bit of greenery next to the busy city nearby. The history of the place is explained at each entrance ! The park is also located very close to some European hotspots like the European Parliament 👍🏻 The place is not very big but enough. It is also very clean and very well maintained wich is great ! Very relaxing place in general that is much recommended if you’re nearby 👍🏻

    A wonderful place to take a break and rest. Especially if it’s sunny. Park is quite large and green. There’s an artificial lake in park, The Swans also look great. Not a particular place to visit but if it’s on your road and you’re tired do not miss it. ☺️

    Beautiful park with lake and many spots to chill and enjoy the day. While it is not the biggest and largest park in Brussels, it has a great atmosphere and vibe. The ducks and swans make it feel even more alive. Recommended to visit during your stay in Brussels and wind off.

  • 5/5 Arthur C. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautiful park with a nice lake to walk around, not too crowded on a Sunday, would definitely recommend, a perfect occasion to enjoy some nature and forget about the concrete and surrounding buildings. Also suitable for running. The House of European History looks very nice and is accessible from the park.

    Wunderschöner Park direkt neben dem Europäischen Parlament und dem Museum für Naturwissenschaften! Es gibt Nilgänse, grüne Papageien und auch Schwäne im Winter zu sehen!

  • 5/5 Olga O. 4 years ago on Google • 145 reviews
    A nice and well-maintained park right behind the Parliament. There are a lot of old trees and it is aesthetically designed. There is a pond and many trails for walking. I saw people with dogs, saw, I guess, you can walk your dog there. There is a playground for older children or adults with a couple of ping-pong tables, basketball nets and football goals. One of the entrances was closed when I was there - I planned my route trough the park, but at the end had to return to my entrance, although the map indicated I can go through.

    Schöner Park in hügeligem Gelände in direkter Nähe zu den europäischen Institutionen, mit Teich und Wasservögeln. Besonders im Sommer gut geeignet für ein nettes Picknick auf der Wiese. Bänke, Spielplatz und Tischtennisplatten sind vorhanden. Auf der Seite zum Europäischen Parlament hin steht auch ein Stück der Berliner Mauer. Zugang zum Museum für Naturkunde und zum Haus der Europäischen Geschichte.

    A famous Park in centre of Brussels Just next to this park are many famous buildings including European Parliament and museum of European history Lovely place Worth visiting

  • 5/5 Daniel P. 9 months ago on Google
    This park basically connects Place Jourdan to the European Parliament. Enjoy the small lake while you are strolling. Also, the museum of Natural Sciences is here. Be prepared for lots of events being organized here such as the lights festival, open museum nights and many more. During the summer people laze about on the grass trying to cool off. Enjoy the cherry trees near the Parliament during the spring.

  • 4/5 Omkar B. 10 months ago on Google
    Went to the park with friend for casual walk. Wanted to specifically visit the monument of Leopald I (photo below), as I always see this whenever I go out of Brussels by bus. It took a while for me to identify exact route to go to monument. Looking at photo, I thought it could be easily identifiable once we are in the park so turned off Google maps but due to hilly area/slopes, monument is not easily viewable. It is right in front of Royal palace. Next to Atomium and Mini Europe, this Leopald I monument is one of the best places to visit when you are in the park.

  • 5/5 Joy B. 7 months ago on Google • 20 reviews
    This is a pretty park with historical significance in the world of science and astronomy. It's not big, but it does lead you to the European Parliament for a visit there as well.

  • 5/5 Galiya I. 6 months ago on Google
    So good. The trees’s schaduw save you from the sun and hot temperature. Most of the benches around the lake is usually occupied but if you go a bit further, along the Natural science museum, there are several benches that usually free. We saw few parrots which was a fun for kids.

  • 5/5 Nicolas P. 5 months ago on Google
