Very nice park to drop by and chill out at! Beautiful to look at and hidden gems of art and monuments within. I’d bet that it looks especially beautiful and colorful in the summer!

This is a free open space garden with curated hedges to create a design that reminds one of beautiful French aristocratic gardens. Statues of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Albert are at the lower end of this area while the top is graced with a sculpture called the Whirling Ear which is near the museum of musical instruments. A restful spot to sit and relax.

Great path for an entertaining walk. There are a few set of stairs to reach the hill from which you may take panoramic photos. Keep your eyes in search of the hidden and not so hidden works of art. From here you may access multiple museums.

A place with no entry fees and having great ambience. We visited this place in evening. We found some people performing on the stairs. The place is quiet photogenic. You can spend upto an hour over here.

Just feel the ambience and the greenery around it.

Walk upwards from the center and you will find yourselves in the beautiful garden of Mont des Arts. City view is amazing from up there and musical clock plays in every hour.

Absolutely stunning view! So we’ll looked after. Nice to walk through the garden or sit in their to appreciate the beauty. Does get quite busy but is a must see!

Large sculptured garden area across the street from the start of the downtown walking area, with beautiful rose bushes, bulbs and trees lined up that provide shelter from the sun.

Great viewing area very close that provides a panoramic view of the downtown area.

We visited the garden many times during our visit to sit upon the steps and view the city and gardens. We visited in mid May and just missed the roses blooming.
