    Nature in Vilvoorde city is no nonsense at the pond...

      The 6.2 ha Hanssenspark is the largest green lung in Vilvoorde and is located near the station.
      With the cooperation of the horticultural school of Vilvoorde, the park was laid out in 1898 in accordance with the then prevailing romantic English landscape style, with winding paths, sloping lawns, large water feature and groups of standard trees. The particularly beautiful cast-iron suspension bridge over the pond testifies to the admiration of the then bourgeoisie for new technologies.
      The park forms the green link between the center and the other major urban renewal projects of Watersite and the station area. Children can enjoy themselves on the playground.
