Situated a few steps away from the Royal Palace, this lovely park was the first public park in Brussels. This is an excellent place for a walk and a good option if you want to play sports or just enjoy sunbathing in the park. The Park of Brussels was once the site of the first battles between the Belgian patriots and the Dutch troops in 1830, but today is the perfect place for relaxation. In the park you will find music kiosks, drinking-water fountains, hammocks and a playground for children, and don't forget that a few meters away there are a bunch of museums you can visit after your walk.
