Spend a day in Woluwé-Saint-Pierre, a beautiful residential area and home to Woluwe Park. The streets surrounding the park are some of the prettiest in Brussels.
From central Brussels, take the metro to Montgomery and walk down Av. Tervueren. Turn in to Av. Jules de Trooz and stop to pick up lunch at the Patisserie Goossens.
The park contains giant sequoias, and cypresses. Visit the church, Saint Peter; built in 1755, it still contains parts of an older building over which it was built. Off the tourist track, the park is worth a visit at any time of year.
