This spring, more than 840,000 flowers, including viola, forget-me-nots and tulips adorn the parks of Sofia, BTA has reported.

The spring flowers have been planted in the parks and gardens of the city in beautifully formed combinations of pansies and contrasting tulips. On the initiative of the municipality, more and more colorful areas are being created on the territory of the city parks. Larger flower areas are located in the central parts of the capital, as well as in sites maintained by the municipal landscaping company.
