For those who cannot wait for the summer holidays and want to take advantage of the beauty of spring , it must be said that there are a number of destinations that are especially recommended to visit during the season of the year when everything flourishes again.
In this article I have selected 5 places that have many reasons to attract you during the months of March, April, May and June. Now you just need to find a space to plan an unforgettable getaway.
Athens, Greece)
The capital of Greece is a fairly quiet city in spring. There are not so many tourists wandering around its main points of interest and you do not get as hot as in July or August, when temperatures easily exceed 30 degrees. That means it is a perfect time to climb the Acropolis of Athens or stroll through beautiful neighborhoods such as Plaka and Monastiriki.

Algarve (Portugal)
The beauty of the Algarve is indisputable. The only thing you have to decide is when to visit what is probably the most touristic area in Portugal with the permission of Lisbon and Porto. You can enjoy its beaches bathed by the Atlantic Ocean, but if you don’t want to wear a swimsuit, you can also walk along the coast to contemplate privileged views from its cliffs, which you will reach by walking along paths that require a good canteen and want to mix with the flora and fauna of the place.

Hallerbos (Belgium)
Hallerbos is a Belgian forest located south of Brussels that deserves a leisurely visit. It is a forest area of ​​540 hectares that is very famous for the purple bluebells that cover certain parts of the forest, where the vegetation roams freely and invites you to explore its trails on foot or by bicycle. Do not be surprised to come across a deer or foxes, since they are animals that inhabit it. Hallerbos has a web page with information, photographs and dates of the great flowering that I recommend you consult not to go ahead of time.
New York, USA)
Someone may be wondering why I have included New York in this list of spring destinations. The reason is not to be found in the price of accommodation or its skyscrapers, which remain immobile whatever the time of year. What attracts you to the Big Apple is its lung, the well-known Central Park . When the month of April arrives, it is completely transformed to attract runners and tourists who do not want to miss a visual spectacle of this category. Between April and May, with a mild climate and blooming buds, you can breathe a different air and colors flood each and every one of its corners, partly thanks to the 20,000 tulips that bloom in the Conservatory Garden.
Tokyo Japan)
In Tokyo there is the beautiful Yoyogi Park , where cherry trees were introduced in the 18th century. When spring arrives and they bloom, from March to May, the local authorities authorize festivals with which an unforgettable moment of the year is commemorated. The park is open every day of the year and admission is free. The variety of its vegetation allows us to enjoy the color of various species of trees during the four seasons of the year.
