Parc du Cinquantenaire

This big park in Brussels is great for walking, relaxing, and enjoying the fresh air. There are beautiful trees, flowers, and old buildings with big arches. You can sit on the grass, have a picnic, or take nice photos. Sometimes people ride bikes or run here. It’s a peaceful place close to the city—perfect for taking a break or hanging out with friends

My husband and I loved this place! A beautiful walk all around. We especially loved the museum. We also loved the virtual experience with Napoleon. It is a must do in the museum. Please put this place on your list. You’ll be there for several hours and you’ll love every bit of it!

Just wow, what an exquisite place to enjoy and relax. Automuseum, napoleon museum, Art & History Museum, so many places to explore in one area. Lots of dining options nearby. Very easy to walk, ride bikes, scooters, etc. Lovely place to visit.

Refreshing to be in nature among trees, grass, and water fountain. There's so much room to run around, kick balls, play and have a picnic. There's a food vendor at the Parc. It seems as though there's going to be a big event as there were tons of porta potties lined up. There were lights and stage being set up at the major entrance.

A wonderful park for walks in any season. A tourist feature is the large Arch and fountain. It is possible to buy ice cream and hot Belgian waffles. In the warm season, a small cafe-bar is open. There is a sports ground for playing basketball and football, a sports field. The only minus is the lack of public toilets, the park is quite large, and it is not very convenient to go to the nearest cafes at the Merode station.

Very beautiful and lively park, and the gat at the end makes it even more beautiful. I definitely recommend checking!

The sprawling green spaces, stunning architecture, and iconic Cinquantenaire Arcade make for a perfect day out. I found a lovely spot under a tree to relax and unwind - it's a great place to sit and relax. The park is steeped in history and offers plenty of photo opportunities. A must-visit for anyone traveling to Brussels

Would 100% recommend for strolls, jogging or runs. Beautifully aesthetic and iconic view of the arc. The pillars depicts history and war story. Also includes a museum of naval history.

Parc du Cinquantenaire is one if the most beautiful parks I have ever seen in my entire life. The grass seemed greener here, the people seemed happier, and it was such a beautiful afternoon when we walked through it I truly don't think I could have had a better afternoon in this beautiful city. When got dropped off at the corner of the property and headed towards the large archway with the flag of the European Union blowing in the wind for some pictures. Parc du Cinquantenaire is home to multiple museums as well including Autoworld, Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and Military History, and Art & History museum. This park is a special place. As someone who lives in a city like Las Vegas that doesn't really have a place like this to come to, it makes me extremely jealous. The people here seemed so happy to just be hanging out with friends and family with such beauty surrounding them it truly made me appreciate that just for a brief time, I was able to join them. If you find yourself reading this or come across this review when deciding if you should come to Parc du Cinquantenaire, just go and see the beauty for yourself.

We took a nice stroll around the large park. Park of the Fiftieth Anniversary was created in 1880. It was planned to celebrate the half-century since Belgian Independence in 1830. The main focal point is the Cinquantenaire Arcade. The monument faces Brussels' city centre.

A wonderful park that isn't that far away from where we currently live. Good views of Brussels from the slight hill that it sits upon. The arch is a great focal point. If you want to get your bearings look for the arch. The museums attached I've not visited. Lack of interest in cars keeps me away from one. Overly knowledgeable about the war already keeps me away from the other. There is a third museum there but I've forgotten what it is. The park itself is a great place to exercise, it's clean and safe. No one has tried to hassle this brick shit house with the face reminiscent of a Bulldog chewing a wasp. It's also hosts a lot of festivals and musical concerts that don't demand the larger parks. Given how convenient it is for any to get there, it's a great choice. Yep I've visited this park more than any other in the city.

This park is much larger than the other parks that I visited, and one of the cool things about it is that there is a fairy tale castle in the middle (or rather off to one side). The park itself is huge, and on the eastern edge there is basically this huge building that houses I believe three museums - much like the Infirmary in Paris, though where the Infirmary is dedicated to the army, this place is a lot more random in its offerings, including Autoworld. However, being late we didn't get the opportunity to look inside and we simply spend out time wandering around and exploring the park, which was pretty impessive in and of itself - especially the fairy tale tower and the huge arch at the far end.

This definitely is my favorite park in Brussels. It didn't take long for me to fall for this place. First of all, It is the biggest park inside the city centre, beside the size, there are also couple very cool museums around, such as Museé Royal De L'Armée Et D'Histoire Militaire, Jubelparkmuseum and Autoworld. Arc de Triomphe gate also is here, pretty cool gate, reminded me a bit the Brandenburg gate in Berlin. the easy way to get here is take the metro, you can get off at the station Schauman or Merode. Like I mentioned before, the park itself it is quite big, prefect place for a walk, get some fresh air and just chill. this is a very beautiful park, clean and organized. It surely a great place to escape from the busy city for a short time. It's also great place make some awesome pictures since the Arc de Triomphe is here. What a great park!

If you're lucky enough to catch some sunlight while in Brussels, you must rush to the nearest metro and go to Merode to stop at parc du cinquantenaire. Not only is it breathtakingly beautiful, but it also hosts "garden parties" in which they lay out chairs and fluffy pillows for people to lie on while a DJ plays some soothing house music. If there is no "garden party" ongoing, you can still marvel at nature's beauty and the last remaining arches from the Roman empire.

I absolutely love the Parc du Cinquantenaire. On sunny days and especially during summer there are plenty of fun activities that take place there like free yoga classes, salsa classes, music festivals and so on. It's always nice to have a little bit of green in Brussels and you feel completely emerged in nature. The architecture is beautiful and you can visit the museums. There are waffle sellers in winter and ice cream sellers in summer. If you have a dog there are special areas where your furry friend can play with his pals. It's super safe even in the middle of the night although you might encounter some drunk but harmless students. Definitively my favorite place in Brussels!

It's a large park with plenty of green space to lounge around on a hot summer day. It's big enough to escape away from the city noises if you find the right spot.

Parc du Cinquantenaire or Jubelpark (depending on whether you're French or Dutch) is a lovely park in the European Quarter in Brussels. If you're a tourist in Brussels, seeing the centerpiece triumphal arch and walking around enjoying the park can be a nice stop. The park houses the Royal Military Museum, the AutoWorld Museum, and the Cinquantenaire Art Museum. Even if you don't visit the museums, walking around to see the Art Museum dome, enjoy the landscaping, and take photos of the triumphal arch is a lovely way to spend an afternoon. You can get to the park easily from the Schuman or Mérode metro stations.

Huge park located a bit away from the city center welcomes you with it's huge Arc de Triomphe. The park is very, pretty and well kept. The perfect retreat from the tourist crowds and very relaxing.

Best park in Brussels. Throughout the year week month day hour minute second. Elegant serene at times majestic. Museums nearby. Could spend an entire day in this park just doing nothing.

The park calls to you with massive arc de Triumph type arches and greened military statues on top. This arch is the main attraction and can be seen from all sides. It's pleasant enough with structured pristine lawns and old trees on the outside. You can find two great museums near the arches, the automobile and military. I tried the military on a Wednesday when it was free and it was well worth the effort. The collection is vast and well curated.
