Le Jardin du Pesage
The Weighing Room used to be the place where the jockeys weighed and received ballast if necessary. Since September 2018, Le Jardin du Pesage is experiencing its second youth and has become a unique, fun and friendly family restaurant with a beautiful terrace. The decoration is by the hand of interior designer Lionel Jadot, who restored the interplay of the building's lines to its former glory. Le Pesage welcomes you to dine with family or friends and enjoy the delicious cuisine or have a drink on the beautiful terrace.

Royal Museum for Central Africa
The Africamuseum in Tervuren is known worldwide as one of the most beautiful and impressive African museums. The new museum immerses you in the continent's very diverse nature and also surprises you with cultural riches and creative cities. It shows life as it is, lets you hear the oldest and newest traditions of language and music and focuses on a lasting relationship between Africa and Europe from the hard colonial history our country shares with Central Africa.
The Castle of La Hulpe
A few minutes from Brussels, in the heart of Walloon Brabant, the park is home to the Château de Béthune, built in 1842 on the model of the castle seen in the Loire Valley in France. It is surrounded by a perfectly symmetrical French garden adorned with decorative sculptures. The Château de La Hulpe will seduce you with its naive airs ‘à la Moulinsart’. It is not accessible to the general public, but is a wonderful setting for any type of event.
