For weeks, everyone talks about it. First asking, has it happened yet? And then later, have you seen them yet? I’m talking about when the cherry trees in Kungsträdgården blossom. It’s always magical there for a few days. And it gets super crowded, what with everyone taking pictures, posing and enjoying the beauty of nature in the center of Stockholm.
