Sicilian Flower Festival

Post by **chandoo** » May 31, 2009

On the southeastern coast of Sicily, the scenic city of Noto holds a unique festival in May called the (Infiorata di Noto) Sicilian Flower Festival. Artists work with a special organic soil to outline a scene on the sidewalk which is filled in with specially prepared flower petals, along with other organic seeds and dried legumes. The process is much like making a stained glass window, with the leading being the small earthen dam and the glass represented by the flowers.
