Every spring, Istanbul witnesses an enchanting period: Tulip Time. During this period the city is adorned with colourful tulips and looks as if it came from a painter's brush. Tulip Time in Istanbul is a perfect opportunity to discover the city's beauty and welcome spring.

Starting in the spring months in Istanbul, Tulip Time fills the city's parks, gardens and historic sites with tulips. This riot of colour gives the city a magical atmosphere.
The tulip is regarded as Turkey's national flower and had great importance during the Ottoman Empire. In the period known in history as the "Tulip Era" (Lâle Devri), tulips were regarded not only as a flower but also as an important symbol in social life and art.
