Finally, the wait was over & yesterday we got to visit it during its Day 2...entrance fees: 10,000/adults & kids for free...Parking is available (supposedly for free.. yet we were asked to pay 5,000!!!) shuttles available for pick-up & drop-offs...
We were nicely greeted by the event hostess, who filled out the entrance info for us , & handed #Gardenshow bag with complimentary magazine!! And we started our 2hrs fun city break :)
Basically participating stands we're pretty much the same (-or+) differently allocated changed of space taken and of course with this year trends and ideas!!!
Hosted by C2C (Le Club des deux Clowns) kids village: music, dancing and lots of activities! big inflatables and fun booth to entertain the kids (I had to avoid it as we r out on a school night & not enough time)
***but from our last year experience entrance was 10000/kid/10voucher points to use on each booth!! Kids had a great time and we spent an hour in that section....
My other favorite section about this place!!! A big picnic area circle under the few remaining trees with tables and chairs and a music band in the middle playing nice sweet songs!! Food stands lining all around & your best judge to pick is beautiful smell followed by tempting looks!! We got pastries from souk el |Tayeb stand for healthy yummy homemade food along with our fresh juices along with burger from sand inc & hotdogs!!
After our nice refreshing break we continued our walk towards the #TravelLebanon section. Checked all the nice touristic areas in Lebanon/ to be discovered in time, the sports nature events & gears, finally our Lebanese local products (soaps- baskets-honey-pottery - mouneh/ &? much/ more...) The Fresh grounded beans and delicious warm coffee at Assaha Lebanon booth at the #gardenshow
Finally, we passed by amazing flowers & trees stands; an incredible mixture of scents with their incredible colors perfectly arranged and displayed...Don't forget to check/ out#BonsaiFlowers creative big stand before you leave...
