Description
Every two years, this provides a different surprise. The master horticulturalists of Ghent enhance the gorgeous setting of the Grand-Place with drawings and sophisticated patterns, whose designs are kept secret until they are finally implemented. By the truckload, 700,000 begonias go to make up this colourful, glowing yet short-lived fresco. These ornamental flowers, which originate from the Caribbean, once cut, can withstand changes in temperature and the beating sun. Their fabulous composition can be admired from all the taverns surrounding the Grand-Place, as well as from the balcony of the Town Hall, which overlooks it directly.
