Forest park, Protected heritage park in Forest district, Belgium.

Forest Park extends over 13 hectares across two municipalities, featuring varied landscapes with walking paths and recreational spaces throughout the grounds.

Victor Besme designed this municipal green space in 1882 as part of Brussels' urban development plan, creating a natural connection between neighborhoods.

The park serves as a central gathering place for community events and activities, connecting residents from the Forest and Saint-Gilles districts.

Multiple entrances along Avenue des Villas and Avenue du Mont Kemmel provide access to the park's facilities, including sports courts and children's areas.

Pine trees within the park host colonies of parakeets, adding unexpected wildlife encounters to the urban environment.
