The liveliest square in the heart of Leuven. During the day, you can enjoy some drinks on one of the many terraces. At evening, the ideal place the have a dinner or a drink to unwind after a tiring day. The longest bar in Europe with over 30 bars and restaurants. Also the place for a lot of (musical) events during the year.
Its like a big bar that can fit 4000 people. Great atmosphere with the crowds and drinking beer and enjoying themselves. I visited during pandemic and it was empty but i can imagine how great in normal days it is.

Meise Botanic Garden is more than two centuries old and is a feast for the senses. It is a place enchanting to the local hiker as well as to the tourist looking for something more. You wander through 92 hectares of nature, with 18,000 plant species from all over the world and with world-class botanical and horticultural collections! You visit the castle, the gigantic glasshouses, the gardens and you can learn all about wood in the WOODlab. Different every day and every season at its best. Here, science and nature meet each other in a picturesque historic domain. A botanical pearl in the heart of Europe.
If you are staying in Brussels or even in Antwerp to visit Belgium and you are interested in plants, nature or science: do go and visit this place. You will have a lovely walk on a well kept domain and the the big greenhouse is the star of the show. The domain is big enough, so it will never be too crowded. Seeing everything at a good pace will take you 3-4 hours and you will get 10,000 steps in your legs, so be prepared. Not sure about the connection with public transport, but it really is a hidden gem and worth a visit.
