Every spring, the Greek region of Imathia turns into a spectacular quilt of hot pink and vivid green due to the blossoms of its famed peach trees that line the entire plain, situated in central Macedonia, according to greekreporter.com.
Everyone on the planet has seen the splendor of the flowering cherry trees of Japan, which give such delicate beauty to the landscape every spring there.
But the massive carpets of pink blossoms from peach orchards, which transform the Imathia region of Greece into a pink wonderland, are equally as stunning and are among the world’s best-kept secrets.
The sight, seen especially well from the foothills of Mount Vermio, equals or exceeds any other springtime floral display anywhere in the world.
“What we see before us each March is an endless pink carpet of flowering peach trees,’’ noted Zisis Patsikas, president of the Veria Tourism Club, speaking with AMNA.
