Nothing to go out of the way for, but a pleasant way to kill an hour in the morning. Get a coffee and relax for a bit.

It is a great advantage of a city to have such little gems hidden here and there in the city center. It's worth to make a break in this beautiful garden and rest from the rush of the city and sit a couple of minutes still, enjoying the fountains, examining the statues, breathing fresh air only few meters away from the traffic.

Small but beautiful park with a waterfall fountain.Along its back you'll discover statues from national historical faces of the 16th century (i.e. before Belgium became a country) such as Mercator.On top of the gothic columns surrounding the park you'll have an overview of 48 ancient corporations through bronze figurines.Great place for pictures away from the crowds on a sunny day!

Excellent gardens with big fountain, and some wonderful statues. But its a fifteen minute visit. Not worth going out of your way for!

A little green area at the heart of the city. An ideal place to have a peaceful rest if one is walking from the center to the EU quarter.

The statues surrounding the park are a refreshing change from the normal museum fare of nobles and religious figures. These statues are of ordinary tradesmen and business people. Well worth a trip around the outside of the park to look at them all.

The Jardin du Petit Sablon takes its name from its location in the old but elegant Sablon district of Brussels and sits facing the junction of two relatively bus streets. Designed in a such of way that it seems tucked between surrounding buildings, it is nevertheless a very pleasant spot. Coupled with a series of fine statues, the landscaped flora and a monumental fountain as its central focus, these add a certain air of sophistication to the garden's atmosphere. But Brussels being Brussels, don't forget to bring an umbrella...just in case the weather can't match the delight of the gadren.

I like this little garden, it's so elegant, and green, an inspiration amongst the governmental and historical buildings in the very city centre. It is also close to lots of tourist attractions and nice food places :-) And there grow tulips, in the summer, beautiful!

This is a nice gardesn, smaller than the Grand Sablon, that is why it is called the petit Sablon with beautiful gardening and some benches for you to sit and admire the statues and the hole garden.

A lovely little garden, quiet and blissfully clean. If you're looking for a fantastic little place away from the crowds and hustle bustle of the city, this is a perfect place to go and have a little chill out. Absolutely delightful.

This is a small garden on the road across from Notre-Dame Du Sablon. It has a distinctive series of statues running up the side of it and a fountain as a focal point in the centre. It has nice plantings and walks although overall it is quite small. It is also located in a very busy area so it is not a complete oasis. Still it is nice to find it in the middle of the city.

Clean. Blissful. So many surrounding things to see. My favourite thing in Brussels to explore besides the food.

Our guide brought us here as part of the tour around the city. Personally, I do not really like the chaotic Brussels, so this little, cosy, cute garden is a beautiful change of view. There are some benches and it is a nice place to relax and escape the chaos of the busy city. If you are in the neighbourhood I can totally recommend to go there, if not, I am not sure of the effort will be worth it.

Worth a few minutes of anyone's time, this well-tended garden beds and fountain, are a little oasis of calm. Wedding parties often stop by for photographs.
