Route of Portugal in Flower

The sun emerges, the temperature rises and Portugal becomes a garden next to the Atlantic. A garden that inspires poets and musicians. A garden that fills the fields with life and colour.
As it was impossible to highlight all the flowers that enrich Portugal, we focused on three: the almond flowers, the flowers of cherry trees and the wild orchids.
We travel to the surroundings of Vila Nova de Foz Côa and get entangled on its snaky roads between the almond trees in bloom, a place known for having one of the country's largest almond extensions.
Stunning views were what awaited us in Resende and Fundão with its slopes full of cherry blossoms.
At the mountain of Aire and Candeeiros, we looked the beautiful and elusive wild orchids. This mountain gave us the best landscape we ever seen so far, while it hid, the small and elusive orchids between its vegetation.
Spring is here, in fact. This time we gave the floor to nature, to hiking, to discovery. A sensorial trip through colours and aromas.
But it's not all! From the litters to carry the saints, at the parish festivities to the processions in academic parties exist, in Portugal, a tradition to decorate the parties and festivities with paper or natural flowers. A huge work that takes months to prepare for, often, a one day event. Therefore with this theme we wanted to highlight four parties "in bloom" that will happen through the year of 2015. You should go because, some of them, only happen from four in four years 4 in 4 and other only when the community wishes….
Be enchanted by the flowers in Portugal!
