Brussels covered in a blossom dream

During this time of the year, in April and May, you can really find amazing and beautifully colored trees in Brussels. These trees originate from Japan and are called ‘Sakura’ in Japanese. When you walk around different neighborhoods in Brussels, you can find many places where these attractive trees.

I decided to take you on a tour around the city and guide you through the pink blossom dream.

The photos are mainly made in areas of St-Gillis (Porte de Halle, Place Hermann Dumont, Park Baron Pierre Paulus) and the Royal Gardens in Laken. For more inspirations, check the list with best spots in Brussels to admire cherry-blossoms.
