Green all around you

With ‘Colonnade’ by Gijs Van Vaerenbergh, created for Triennial Bruges 2021, this park along the inner ring road was given a major boost.

With its 26 hectares and over 3000 trees, the Vesten form broad green ramparts around the city.

From intimate garden of residential care centre Ter Potterie to a public space for residents and world citizens.

The Graaf Visartpark is flourishing.

Despite its grand entrance, this has always been a park for people in the know.

For almost a century, this is where the train used to come into the city.

Right in the heart of the city, near the Fish Market and Burg Square and in the shadow of Saint Magdalene’s Church, lies this glorious botanical park.

The city feels far, far away from the Lake of love park.

When these two sites are combined, the Hof De Jonghe and Hof Campers together form one very special city park.

Just a stone’s throw from the Vesten, in the peaceful Sint-Anna neighbourhood, you’ll suddenly come across the Guido Gezellewarande.

It's highly unlikely that you stumbled upon the Pastor Van Haecke Garden by chance.

On the City Ramparts, close to the Lake of Love, a striking round tower stands, grabbing the attention.

In parks and on the City Ramparts.

Have you spotted them yet?

This local park with a pond is the best-kept secret of the residents of the nearby social housing neighbourhood.

We have gathered a fine collection of resting places. Well hidden, yet right in the middle of the city. Follow this ready-made route (4.5 km) and be surprised.
