The sumptuous blooming of the blue hyacinths at Bois de Hal has begun! Spend a moment of pure poetry just a stone’s throw from Brussels…
This fantastic plant phenomenon, which takes place every year around the end of April/beginning of May, leaves its visitors astonished by the beauty of the area nicknamed “the blue forest”.
Spring in Belgium is synonymous with magnificent blooms to be seen all over the country. A short while ago, we took a stroll through the streets of Schaerbeek, in search of the splendid cherry blossoms.
This time of year is the best time to get out of the city and discover the wonders of nature. Just 30 minutes from Brussels, the incredible rose garden at Château de Coloma is one of the largest and most beautiful in Europe. In Hasselt, a magnificent Japanese garden lets you discover the flora of the Land of the Rising Sun. In Anhée, the splendid Jardins d’Annevoie impress with their charm and beauty, even more dazzling in spring.
Throughout Belgium, waterfalls of pure beauty offer isolated moments of coolness in the midst of nature. But let’s get back to business: the blooming of blue hyacinths in the Bois de Hal, in addition to being a sweet moment of poetry, attracts several hundred locals every year to observe the phenomenon.
