Spring covers all of Istanbul with a generous carpeting of tulips. Flowery displays start in late March and continue into early May. The local government has been planting flowers since 2006, and nowadays the city's valleys boast millions of tulips. The top 7 parks to enjoy this Turkish beauty include Gülhane Park, Emirgan Korusu, Yildiz Park, Soğanlı Bitkiler Park, Beykoz Korusu, Göztepe Gül Bahçesi, and Büyük Çamlıca Korusu. Apart from tulips, there are other spring flowers like daffodils or hyacinths, but the real draw is the tulips.
