The Royal Greenhouse Laeken







Yesterday we had the change to visit the Royal Greenhouses in Laeken Belgium.
It was the first time because this is only open for public 3 weeks a year, when the flowers are most of then in full bloom.
It is more than impressive to see this Royal Greenhouses it self. It's like a big cathedral in glass and steal.
It's the Belgium' most important 19th -century monument, commissioned by king Leopold ll .
The Orangery at Laeken dates from early 19 century.
Me with my friends Liesbeth middle and Roos right.
