This garden deserves a daily visit while you are in Leuven. Each day something new pops up and the collection of plants is gorgeous and the garden is beautifully maintained. It is centrally located, easy to walk to from most of Leuven and open daily. I loved visiting it everyday for two weeks in February. I imagine it even more delightful in the flowering seasons. Take your children -- besides the wonderful paths to explore, there are chickens in one part of the garden and often ducks on the pond.See more..
4.0Japanese Tuin(645 reviews) - Obon Matsuri at the Japanese Garden, great summer evening! Tuesday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Gardens
While we have visited the Japanese Garden many times, we never visited the garden on a summer evening. However, Obon Matsuri was worth a visit. During two summer evenings in August, the Japanese Garden celebrates Obon Matsuri, which includes Tōrō Nagashi. After sunset, the garden was decorated with floating paper lanterns, turning the pond in front of the tea house into a sea of lights which was accompanied by festive Japanese music and performances.See more..

A nice discovery in Gent, have read alot about it but never was there so it was time for a visit. Very peaceful place, starts from beginning and a must be for plant- and flowerlovers.. So many different plants, flowers, herbs to see. They have 3 glasshouses which you have to visit because they all have a different climate and you can see special species of plants. Some are even on the list of endangered species. Was a nice hidden gem in the city.See more..
4.5Chateau de Grand-Bigard(37 reviews) - Beautiful castle and surrounding gardens Spent 2-3 hours Gardens
I visited here with some friends when the Florilia Brussels event was being held here in 2021. The millions of flowers were stunningly beautiful. With the castle as a backdrop the event was really spectacular. The castle grounds are larger than I expected. I'm not sure if the castle is open regularly to the public, but whenever it is open I recommend a visit. Great day our for family and friends.See more..
