What is Girona Temps de Flors?
The first half of May in Girona is when its internationally renowned floral festival, Temps de Flors, takes over. Busloads of visitors arrive by the minute; famous tourist sites have lines snaking around the block, and popular restaurants start adding flower petals to soups and salads.
The Girona Flower Festival is the best time to literally smell the flowers. It’s an ideal setting for taking gorgeous photographs, buying flowers, gifting flowers, and learning more about botany. It is also a very popular time to visit Girona, a town that has no shortage of tourists even outside the busy summer season.
