Things to do in Brussels, Belgium: The Best Nature & Parks
Unassuming Brussels is the capital of Belgium, Flanders and Europe. Medieval Grand-Place, is indeed grand, with many 17th-century buildings and daily flower markets. Reopened in 2006, the Atomium, Brussels' Eiffel Tower, provides great views, inside and out. Architecture fans should visit Musee Horta, home of Belgian master architect Victor Horta. St. Gery's clubs and bars are packed year-round. Seafood eateries abound in Ste. Catherine. Walk, rather than get snarled up in traffic, in the narrow streets.

Take your dog or just yourself, no tech devises whatsoever and walk in the chilly morning by the lake in Bois de la Cambre. If early enough or just a bit late, the chances are you will enjoy a peaceful solitude as well. Sit there in a bench and clean your mind and soul with the beauty of the nature hesitating to break already into an early spring or not.

Very pretty forest, I entered via the Rouge Cloître and got a bit lost, but it's a really beautiful place with plenty of well-trodden pathways. A bit of a trek to get there from Hermann-Debroux, but there is a tramstop right at the top of the forest too... a bit of googling will see you right! I went in autumn and the leaves were all colours, some still green, others falling off the trees as a nice gold colour.

I visited the Jardin Du Petit Sablon on the last day of my extended August Bank Holiday break last year.After visiting Notre Dame Du Sablon,I exited the church crossed the road and was greeted with this fine landscaped gem of greenery.The gardens,the fountain, and the statues are amazing.The whole garden is encircled with impressive statues both internally and externally.An information board,explains more about the garden. A nice picture to take is the gardens with the church in the background. Well worth visiting,taking in and enjoying these small but very pretty gardens.
