Belgium

Each year in the spring, the floors of Hallerbos Forest in Belgium are transformed into something out of a magical fairyland. Beautiful flowers known as bluebells carpet the ground and stretch as far as the eye can see. Catching this gorgeous sight can be a bit tricky, as the flowers are notorious for popping up when they see fit and not a moment before. However, your best chance to see the wondrous display in person is typically mid-April.

France

Though we’d have to say there’s never a bad time to visit France, in Spring it’s Provence that truly dazzles. It’s this time of year that the lavender fields are in their glory. The fields are really something to see, and gives the entire countryside an even more dreamlike quality. Visiting in spring also helps you beat the summer crowds in Provence.
