Parc Boverie, a beloved green space in Liège, has been a favorite destination for leisurely strolls since the 14th century. Officially established in the late 19th century, the park replaced earlier structures with expansive lawns and diverse trees, creating a tranquil environment for relaxation and recreation. The park's location on an island between the Meuse River and the Dérivation canal adds to its unique charm. A highlight is the Musée de la Boverie, housed in the former Palais des Beaux-Arts, which was built for the Liège International Exposition in 1905. This museum offers a mix of fine art and international exhibitions. Visitors can also enjoy the park's rose garden, the modern pond, and the Cybernetic Light Tower, a unique installation that combines light and music based on weather and ambient noise. The park provides free parking and is easily accessible by public transportation, making it a convenient escape for families, art enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a peaceful break from city life.
