Parker och grönområden i Brygge

Parks and Green Spaces

Bruges' green belt follows the path of the city's second medieval defensive wall, creating a scenic promenade along the outer canals. This collection features sections of these historic ramparts, such as the Boeverievest and Katelijnevest, alongside central retreats like Koningin Astrid Park. Notable highlights include the modern 'Riders of the Apocalypse' sculptures at Hof Arents and the expansive Minnewaterpark, situated by the historic 'Lake of Love' at the city's southern edge. These spaces provide quiet walking paths and views of the city's water-bound perimeter.
