Baden. Festival of Roses in Doublhoffpark

Today I’ll tell about an annual festival in Doublhoffpark during rose’s blossoming.

Every year within a month (this year from May 22 up to June 20), the Festival of Roses take place in Doublhoffpark and the Ball of Roses, which is held in the open air, is its culmination. For the whole month the schedule of cultural events, which don’t repeat, is made. It is nice that assign the special children’s program and the small inhabitants with special needs receive individual invitations.
I visited Doublhoffpark twice within a month and you will see everything – the flower fairy dancing in park alley, a small exhibition of roses grown by owners of private gardens with indispensable prize awarding (take a look at photo - Rose Mini Eden). This exhibition is traditionally held in the restored charming Baroque orangery.
There is a big pergola which shape shady alley in the Doublhoffpark and some of the climbing roses are trained to grow along this pergola (see photo). I like to walk along this small “avenue” and when I lift my head I admire roses against the heavenly azure.
June has ended. The Roses showed their magnificence in the course of whole month, but Doublhoffpark has some more secrets and I’ll tell a little bit later about.
And now has come the time return to Vienna and I wanna give particular attention to the Viennese architecture in my future stories.
