Almond Blossom Day

Gimmeldingen, Germany

There are lots of almond trees along the German Wine Road but Gimmeldingen has the highest density of them.
Every year in March or April, the village hosts its annual Almond Blossom Festival.
The date is set just a few days before the festival as they have to wait for the blossoms to come out.
It is a very popular fest and people from all over come to see the blossoms.
To avoid the crowds, we visited a few days after the festival weekend on a beautiful warm sunny day.
