* Etterbeek has a few green areas, including Jean-Félix Hap Garden. The better known [[Cinquantenaire|Parc du Cinquantenaire/Jubelpark]] lies on the territory of both the [[City of Brussels]] and Etterbeek, and [[Leopold Park]] borders the municipality's territory.

The main university campus of the [[Vrije Universiteit Brussel]] (VUB) is called ''Campus Etterbeek'', although it is geographically not within Etterbeek but in the adjacent [[Ixelles]].
