Every corner feels different, and it’s easy to spend hours just walking around, getting ideas, and discovering new local businesses.
When we visited, the energy was incredible. You could tell people were ready for spring.
The garden installations were easily one of the highlights — full-scale setups that felt like walking through mini outdoor escapes. Some were modern and minimal, others cozy and rustic, but all of them were super creative.
