Square Ambiorix is a bowl of fresh air located just 120 meters away from Shuman that is home of the EU institutions. Its really worth the short walk if you ever are in that part of Brussels since it also has around 20 very interesting buildings dating back from 1890. One of them being the art nouveau masterpiece house of Saint Cyr.

You will always find a large number of flowers all along Square Ambiorix
