If you look from a plane over Brussels, you will notice that it is a very "green" city, with lots of parks of all sizes. Brussels belongs to the top 10 of Europe's greenest capitals.

The Bois de la Cambre is an urban public park in Brussels. It has an area of 1.23 square kilometres (0.765 square miles) and in summer the ideal place for a family picnic.
But there are also lots of little green squares amongst the buildings
All these parks are open to the public, for walks or picnics
The extensive Woluwe Park includes giant sequoias, cypresses, and a variety of birds such as swans, gulls, and herons.

Beautiful pictures! The African Museum park is neat.
ReplyDeleteIt is great that the city has so many green spaces. The elephants roaming around look like fun.
ReplyDeleteSo green and lovely!
ReplyDeleteCities need greenery. Brussels does look very green from those aerial photos.
ReplyDeleteGreen is so good on the eye and good for the environment. I wish the Brussels' City Fathers were here in Tanzania to help create beautiful parks in the midst of the dusty villages and towns. I LOVE the elephants in your one photo. Great post, thanks for sharing.

I thought you were going to write about Paris! I had to go back up to see you had written Parks...
ReplyDeleteThey are nice though. I loved the Woluwé park when I lived in Brussels, although I didn't go there nearly enough.
Oh I love these shots. I really love the hand sculpture! Thanks for sharing this with us!

ReplyDeleteI was only in Brussels for a few days. I see more of here than when I was there. The parks look designed in the same era as the ones in Paris.
