The Nature and Culture Park in Hasselt stretches out over 1,5 hectares. Main purpose of the park is giving us an idea of biodiversity and the riches of boxwood.

Visitors can also discover old crafts like weaving willow and rotan, presented in a modern way. In the center of the park stands a huge basket, one of the biggest hand-woven willow baskets in the world. It's open to public and offers a splendid view of the park.
