Immerse guests in the most colorful festivities in Spain with our DMC partner Destination Spain and Portugal! Flowers are the guests of honor at some of the most colorful festivals in Spain. Perhaps the best known is the Courtyards Festival in Cordoba held in May (declared as Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO), when you will be able to stroll around the city’s most beautiful courtyards, which compete to have the most eye-catching decorations with flowerpots containing geraniums, carnations and jasmine. Also in May, Girona celebrates the Temps de Flors (time of flowers) and the patios, monuments and corners of the city fill up with plants and flower boxes. And on the subject of flowers, in June we have the Corpus Christi, in places, such as Toledo, San Cristóbal de La Laguna (Tenerife), Sitges (Barcelona) and Ponteareas (Pontevedra) whereby the streets are adorned with enormous carpets made out of petals.
Visit a city: the time for terraces and urban gardens! Enjoy the fact that the high summer temperatures have not yet arrived and delight in strolling around Spanish cities in spring. Dust off your sunglasses and try the most innovative tapas on the terraces on the hotels’ rooftops or in the renovated gastro markets. Another activity that is perfect for spring is exploring the famous urban parks, such as the Buen Retiro Park in Madrid or Park Güell in Barcelona or botanical gardens, such as those in Marimurtra (in Blanes, Girona), with impressive sea views and considered to be one of the best botanical gardens in all of Europe.
