The jewels of Leuven

This serene area use to be the residence of beginjner now converted to be the residence of KU professors, guests and research students. The well preserved houses and garden worth a visit. The area is very quiet and nice for an evening walk. It is located 10 minutes walk from Old Town Hall. Worth a visit as it is an Unesco Heritage.

    Cool Place
    This place is a must for all visitors and always on our tour when we get visitors . Doesn’t take long to walk around but well worth visiting. It’s like stepping back in time. All those lucky Students & Teachers living there must enjoy it. Free parking nearby and you can also walk into town from there.

    Amazing place - must visit
    One of the most beautiful places in Belgium. A must visit if you are in Leuven. I'd suggest you to picknick there. But please respect the silence and don't leave your trash there.
