In the heart of the European quarter, the Leopold Park is a green haven, where everyone likes to come and get some fresh air. By noon, the lawns are eagerly taken over by students, staff from nearby institutions and tourists. Near the park you will find the Museum of Natural Sciences with its impressive iguanodons and its gallery on biodiversity, as well as the new Museum of European History and quite a few scientific institutions such as the Solvay Library, which often hosts events.
