Jardin Jean-Félix Hap / Jean-Félix Haptuin

ParkLocal favourite

A walled 19th-century notary family garden with a pond, a kiosk and a Dutch-language library, run as a rare silence park: no ball games, bikes, picnics or dogs. Locals come to read and watch birds; from the street you would never guess it is there.
