In 1958 the World Exposition took place in Brussels. It was the first major World Expo registered after World War II. it was just in front of the King's Palace in Brussels/Laeken.
The only "left over" from this exposition is the Atomium which became the sign of Brussels, like the Eiffel tower in Paris.
Today nature has again taken over the park and from all buildings of the world exposition there is nothing left, except the Atomium. It is a beautiful park where, when the weather is nice people walk around or picnic on the lawn.
