<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe best place to see lavender fields in Europe is Provence, France, especially the Valensole plateau<\/strong>, the Luberon valley, and Sault. The peak bloom is usually from late June to mid-July. We were here in summer and it\u2019s incredibly beautiful!<\/p>\n\n\n\n The best spots to see lavender fields in Provence<\/strong>, France: <\/p>\n\n\n\n I recommend reading Provence Route \u2013 A Road Trip Among Wineries and Lavender Fields<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Czechia also boasts lavender fields and even the largest organic lavender field in Central Europe<\/strong>. There are several farms in Czechia specializing in lavender cultivation. A few kilometers from Prague, in the village of Nezabudice, there is an organic lavender farm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I recommend reading: South Moravia \u2013 A Journey Through the Wine Country of Czechia<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Surprisingly, you can find breathtaking lavender fields throughout the United Kingdom\u2014if you know where to look. Below is a collection of the most beautiful lavender fields the United Kingdom<\/strong> has to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is lavender in various regions of Italy, and it is impossible to list them all. Here are a few lavender farms where you can enjoy magnificent fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I recommend reading: Val d’Orcia \u2013 Why Visit the Most Beautiful Place in Tuscany<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Very close to Madrid, you can feel as if you\u2019re in the middle of Provence with its lavender fields.<\/strong> Just an hour\u2019s drive from Madrid, in the province of Guadalajara, hidden in the woods, you\u2019ll find this little gem\u2014lavender fields<\/strong>. So you don\u2019t have to go all the way to Provence to enjoy this sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This area is known as Jard\u00edn de la Alcarria, where one of the most important lavender plantations in Spain is located<\/strong>. You need to come to Brihuega, to the stretch of road to Malacuera, passing this village for a few kilometers. When you get to this area, there is a large open space where you can park your car without any problem\u2014there is a parking lot with toilets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is where the Lavender Festival<\/strong> is celebrated, right in the fields. You can also take a hot air balloon ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Address<\/strong>: Road GU-925 from Brihuega to Malacuera, 7.7 km.

At Lavendelshop Kaiserstuhl they sell handmade products made from their own lavender: essential oils, soap, pillow sprays, dried bouquets\u2014everything simple, high quality, and refreshingly unpretentious. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Usually, you can\u2019t walk through the fields, but you can admire them from the side. It\u2019s best to pop into the shop first; there they\u2019ll tell you the best spot for viewing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The lavender fields in Moldova were the first I ever saw in my life. Lavender has been cultivated here for a long time, and in recent years new field locations have appeared. We passed by and saw most of them while traveling through this country. I highly recommend it, especially the places that are not very touristy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The best time to visit the lavender fields in Cobusca Nou\u0103 is the third week of June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nearest city<\/strong>: Chisinau<\/a> \u2013 this is a convenient base to make trips by car to lavender locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n More information about exact locations and traveling through the lavender fields of Moldova here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n The world\u2019s largest producer of lavender oil is now not the famous French Provence, but little Bulgaria<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In fact, Bulgaria has been the leader for the past few years, since most of the lavender fields in Provence were damaged and have yet to recover. China, second in line for this title, has replaced them with other agricultural crops. .<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n In Bulgaria, the number of fields is only increasing each year, and now more are planted in the north. Fragrant lavender fields are everywhere in Bulgaria, but it\u2019s hard to pinpoint them all on a map.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lavender fields are now widespread throughout the country, and you can find them near Burgas, Nessebar<\/a>, Tyulenovo, Kavarna, and many other regions. Here are a couple more fields: here<\/a> and here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These beautiful and huge lavender bushes can be seen just 1.5 hours north of Antalya, in Isparta province. We came here in July, during our road trip around Turkey<\/strong><\/a>. The bushes bloom beautifully and there are many\u2014plenty of room for everyone\u2019s photo sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Interestingly, local lavender bushes are very different in size from all those I’ve seen in France, Moldova, Ukraine, or even Czechia. Here they are simply gigantic\u2014the bushes were taller than me. But their origin turned out to be French.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can arrive here as part of a tour. But the best way is to rent a car<\/a><\/strong> and come whenever is convenient for you. We did this at Antalya airport, booking the car in advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Field location: Kuyucak village, Isparta.
