Full description

Parc du Cinquantenaire is a large, formal park defined by its monumental triumphal arch, from which visitors can take in views of the city. Floral gardens and fountains fill the landscaped grounds, and the surrounding colonnaded buildings house museums such as Autoworld and the military and aviation collections.

The park is open from early morning until late evening and serves as both a green escape and a cultural stop. Reviewers highlight its calm atmosphere and iconic architecture.

Allow around an hour to walk the grounds, longer if you enter a museum.
