Perhaps more famous as a centre of international politics, Brussels is also an important cultural hub in Belgium. Visitors taking a
car hire in Brussels can enjoy live music performances as part of the Botanical Nights concert series, held at the city's Botanique gardens from May 11-20.
Concerts are staged across four halls in the stately botanical gardens. Highlights of this year's programme include François and The Atlas Mountains, Amadou et Mariam, Daniel Darc Chapelier Fou, Great Mountain Fire and Baxter Dury, to name a few. The musical performances are very popular and offer attendees the chance to hear great live music in an enchanting atmosphere.
The Botanique is a major tourist attraction in itself. Originally built in the 19th century as a haven for scientific research, the facility was praised by Victor Hugo, writer of Les Miserables, as one of the grandest concert halls in the world. The botanical gardens feature striking architecture, exotic plant life and sophisticated dining facilities, making a visit to the gardens a must for visitors taking a
car hire in Belgium.
Located on the Rue Royale, the Botanique a short drive from Koningsstraat, in the centre of the city.
