As if the Grand Place in Brussels - one of the world's most beautiful squares was not spectacular enough, every two years the Belgians cover it with a huge carpet of flowers.
The enterprise involves considerable time and effort, when you think that over 1800 square metres have to be covered with a massive 800,000 fresh begonias.
This flower carpet is usually planned for the second weekend of August and lasts for four days. The next one will probably be at 2006.
