The amazing annual flower festival, ‘Floriade’ is Australia’s biggest celebration of spring and is taking place in Commonwealth Park, Canberra. This month-long festival is in full swing and will continue till November.
Floriade 2023 is a medley of delight and surprise. Extensive displays of flowering bulbs filled the gardens on the picturesque shores of Lake Burley Griffin in a springtime extravaganza.
