Japanese Garden Hasselt

The Japanese Garden in Hasselt is the largest of its kind in Europe, the place par excellence to fully experience Japanese culture. Originally a Japanese garden encouraged meditation and reflection and that is no different in Hasselt. Those looking for peace and quiet can find a bench here to listen to the waterfalls, view the koi fish and feed them, have a picnic or walk around quietly and enjoy the changing view. Sometimes you can also hear the peace bell ring. Since 2016, the peace bell has a permanent place in the garden. In addition, there are numerous activities every month that are open to the public.

A Japanese garden is a place for contemplation and meditation. In spite of its location between the city centre of Hasselt and the main ring, the Hasselt Japanese garden breaths a delightful calm. It is an ideal place to walk around and enjoy the ever changing views or just to sit down somewhere and listen to the calming noise of flowing water ...

'De sixties' Bokrijk - café in 'De sixties'

The sixties

In The sixties, lifelike settings of a living room, petrol pumps and café take you right back in time. The ID cards are a nice detail which help you relive the period 1958-1973 through the eyes of a sixties character. At the entrance to The sixties, decide which character will guide you through these lifelike exhibits. A sixties star? A former cycling superstar? Or one of the dozens of other characters?

Bokrijk - zicht op het Openluchtmuseum

The park Bokrijk

Ever wonder where our current habits and traditions come from? Or how the past inspired our present and future? Craftsmanship of today, yesterday and tomorrow is what it’s all about in our open air museum. Be surprised by four interesting museum parts which each have a different focus: Kempen, where you can see craftsmen in action and can get to work in one of our new workshop barns. Haspengouw, where actors take you back to 1913. East- and West-Flanders, where you can enjoy the peace and quiet of the cultural landscape during a nice walk. Or ‘The sixties’, where real life decors of a living room, gas station or pub take you back to the turbulent sixties. Besides the museum, you can also enjoy a hike or cycle in the green or even through the water! Or visit the Arboretum, with various plant and tree collections. Kids can play in the free open air playground. Perfect for a nice family day out!

Speeltuin Bokrijk - speeltuin

Playground

Bokrijk’s open-air playground provides entertainment for everyone, regardless of their age, among others because it has been subdivided into various areas, making it even safer.
Small children can play in the toddler children’s village (until age 8), a miniature version of the open-air museum. Here the playground equipment in the shape of farm animals, a windmill and an oven for baking sand cakes guarantee hours of outdoor fun. Adapted equipment is provided for disabled children. For a small fee every child can have hours of fun with the miniature cars and on the miniature golf court. Older children can try out the natural adventure trail. Are you more courageous than Indiana Jones or Lara Croft? Then you can’t afford to miss the obstacle course! Large stones, rope constructions, tree trunks, beams and a fireman’s pole to slide down. And after all that climbing the water equipment provide a welcome refreshment for young heroes. The mysterious experience in the dead tree forest or on the barefoot trail will complete your adventure!

Admission to the domain: FREE

The Open-air Museum

Are you interested in discovering the origins of our current habits and traditions? Besides a rich collection of historical buildings and objects, the museum’s collection also includes intangible cultural heritage such as rituals, stories and techniques, and a number of traditional animal breeds. How has
this history inspired our present and our future? Be prepared to be surprised by four fascinating museum sections, each with its own unique perspective.

The Kempen museum section focuses on the craftsmanship of today, yesterday and tomorrow. Find out the origins of raw materials, watch craftsmen at work or use your own creativity and get to work in one of the two new workshop barns. Haspengouw takes you back to the atmosphere of 1913. With our “Living history” experience, actors will play the parts of Flemish villagers caught up in the events on the eve of the First World War. In the section East- and West-Flanders of the museum, you enjoy a peaceful walk among the silence and beauty of the landscape, so it is the perfect place to recharge your batteries. In The sixties, lifelike settings of a living room, petrol pumps and café take you right back in time.

In 2019 it will be exactly 450 years since the Flemish painter Pieter Bruegel the Elder died. To celebrate this anniversary, the Bokrijk Open-Air Museum (Genk) is organising an international exhibition entitled "The World of Bruegel". The exhibition offers a contemporary and sensory experience of the uses, standards and habits that existed in the middle of 16th century. The trail guides visitors through the Open-Air Museum, passing through various locations each of which have their own particular little world, emphasising the connection between Bokrijk and Bruegel.
