In spring all apple and cherry

Spring in Prague

Spring in Prague is outrageously beautiful. You feel dizzy from all these amazing pink cherry trees and divine aromas in the air. Snow-white apple trees and stunning chestnut avenues drive you mad. Even experienced travelers can fall in love with all this beauty, combined with the incomparable Prague’s architecture.

Content:

All tourists and locals are stunned by the magnificence around them, opening their mouths, either in surprise or in an attempt to breathe in the lovely smells deeper. They maniacally press the buttons of cameras and phones in an effort to capture their delights. The city literally comes to life and shakes itself from hibernation. All benches are tightly occupied by those who want to bask in the first gentle rays of the spring sun.

Have you ever noticed that in spring not only nature blossoms, but in general all living things? At no other time of the year we don’t meet so many smiling passers-by, children’s laughter doesn’t sound so loudly and the eyes of couples in love do not burn so brightly. And even grumpy old men condescendingly contemplate all this splendor from the height of their past years and melodiously tap canes to the accompaniment of bird singing.

A calendar of Prague’s blossoms.

• Mid of March: almonds , cherries and some early apple trees bloom. Basically, these are light pink and white flowers. The aromas are extraordinary.
• End of March: Magnolias are blooming. They fade, as a rule, in the first half of April. The city is already relatively warm and sunny, but a warm coat can still be very useful.

• Mid-April: The truly royal sakura blooms. In colder years, this happens later, by the end of the month. Unfortunately, it’s is very vulnerable and quickly looses all it’s beauty (to be honest, it’s is shaken by hundreds of photographers and thousands of tourists even faster). Therefore, for beautiful photos (see below) you have a week maximum.
• Beginning of May: time for the fragrance of lilac . Peonies and rhododendrons bloom in the gardens. With some efforts, you can even find wisteria.
• Early June: jasmine bushes and roses bloom. You can meet roses much earlier and later, so do not be surprised. But in June they will be EVERYWHERE.

Sakura in Prague and 1st of May.

For me personally, Prague becomes especially beautiful in spring when this pink splendor blossoms. Branches of magnificent trees bend under the weight of huge bunches. A little later in the article I will give tips where exactly you need to go for the blooming sakura.

Did you know that on May 1 the Czechs celebrate not only the labor day they got from the Communists, but also celebrate a more poetic and romantic event?

1st of May has been considered the day of lovers in the Czech Republic for a very long time. Saint Valentine conquered the world much later and enslaved it with billions of plush pink hearts and bears. And before that, on the 1st of May, every Czech girl should have been kissed under a blooming cherry tree so that her beauty would not fade away all year. A kiss in those days was considered a very intimate between two young people, and therefore that kiss automatically became the harbinger of the upcoming wedding.
