DOMAIN OF HUIZINGEN

Easter weather is just so perfect so that we took a walk through the Domain of Huizingen, a parc of 45 ha (111 acres). It is about 20 min from Brussels en the flemish part of the country.

and a train for those who wanted to see the whole domain which is very big. It would take more than two hours to walk all around

For children too, playgrounds are there.

You can easily spend the whole day there.
