Girona’s Flower Festival In Photos
Take one city that oozes with medieval charm and Mediterranean style, throw in hundreds of thousands of petals and then let creativity run wild. The result is the Temps de Flors, or Festival of Flowers, in Girona. Every year, this Spanish town scraps admission fees and lets the scent of roses fill the air. Queues thread around the cloisters, crowds fill the squares, while classical music drifts across the streets. Shops display tulip stickers and buttercup cakes, while poets use broken pianos and flower cascades to reflect the pain of a life cut short.
Whichever way you look at it, there’s something interesting to look at.
The Temps de Flors in Pictures
I travelled to Girona as a guest of Visit Costa Brava. All pics, words and thoughts (such as they are) are always mine…
Hi, I'm Abi, a journalist who swapped a career as a doctor for a life on the road. 
Wow! These pictures are so beautiful! Girona’s come a long way since I first visited many years ago — I think it got a big boost when Ryan Air started flying from there… Then again, Spaniards love their festivals. So happy, colorful and stunning!
Yes they do – there are more festivals in Spain than days of the year! And you’re right, it’s much easier to get to now with the Ryanair flights.
Great pictures
Thank you
I was just in Girona and loved it, but your photos are making me want to go back for the flower festival – it looks amazing!
It’s coming up again next month!I hope you get to go…
