Garden visit, Sunday 3rd July at 2:15pm, Botanic Gardens, Meise

The Oxford University Society of Belgium is kindly inviting us to their guided visit of the national Botanic Gardens at Meise

on Sunday 3rd July, meeting at the main entrance, Nieuwelaan 38, B-1860 Meise at 14.15h for a 14.30 start of the tour. The visit will take between 1 ½ and 2 hours, and we will finish with refreshments in the Orangery tavern.

The Botanic Garden covers a 92 hectare site and boasts more than 18000 varieties of plant, and our guided tour will enable us to fully appreciate its features. You can find out more on their website: http://www.plantentuinmeise.be/index.php , which also gives practical information on access. They do not mention the possibility of taking your bike to Heysel on the metro, but I think this could also be an option.

Participation in the visit will cost €10 (comprises entrance fee and cost of tour), which must be paid in advance by transfer to the Society's account BE04 4310 6858 5131, KREDBEBB, the refreshments can be paid on site. Please register using the link http://goo.gl/forms/2NC38cAPLciZqaWK2 or by emailing me atoxfordsocietybelgium@gmail.com .  It is possible that numbers might have to be limited, in which case priority will be given to those who have already paid.
