One of the biggest events in the city of Girona takes place during the 2nd week of May: the Girona flower festival “Girona, Temps de Flors”. During these days of spring, some of the most iconic spots in the city are decorated with flowers, and the city looks even more beautiful! Is there any more creative way to welcome the spring? :)
Girona Flower Festival: the iconic spots to visit
If you are thinking of visiting the city and enjoying this wonderful festival, here we share some of the most iconic spots that are decorated with flowers. Not only that, each artwork is designed following a concept that might leave you wondering about the meaning…
Casa Sambola (Carrer de la Força)
For instance, this artwork at the Casa Sambola. It represents what life is: a beautiful chaos. We specially loved this one.
Catedral de Girona
This spot in the city is one of the most iconic (if not the most iconic along with the bridge Pont de les Peixateries Velles). Actually, some scenes from the Game of Thrones series were filmed at this Catedral staircase. So needless to say, this is one the most iconic spots also during this Girona flower festival. Don’t forget to include it on your route!
Soterranis de la Catedral de Girona
Also, in the basement of the catedral, you will also find an artwork exhibition which is displayed along a tunnel. Also worth visiting!
Pont de Sant Agustí
Pont de Sant Agustí is one of the bridges upon Onyar River, which is also decorated with beautiful floral art.
Banys Àrabs
This place is worth a visit any of the 365 of the year, to get to know some episodes of the story of Girona while walking the old town. But specially during Temps de Flors flower festival, this is such a beautiful place which displays a set of scenarios made out of flowers.
And besides these iconic spots, the whole city is decorated with flowers for this special occasion. You can visit the website of the Girona flower festival Temps de Flors to get all the details before visiting, including a map with the diverse routes in the city.
