Besides being
constantlyrated as one
of the greatest countries to live in
in the world , file this as
motive #4 ,123 to stop by the Netherlands : Bloemencorso , the
yearly parade of flowers in Zundert . That’s
correct ,
each float here is
created fromall-naturalplants ,
especially dahlias . From twisting architectural structures the
dimensions of houses to
weird animatronic birds and puppets ,
as well as animals
created from swooping gestures reminiscent of graffiti , Bloemencorso
hasa bit of everything .
Even with the relatively small nature of Zundert (
one small town north east of Belgium with a
community of about 20 ,000 ) the variety of and
creativity of these sculptures
appears to know no bounds . I’ve embedded an hour-long video of the
whole parade from 2012 above , it’s
really worth skipping around a bit to see
the whole thing.youtube.com
