6. BUGA 2009 SCHWERIN - PART SIX - Federal Horticultural Show

BUGA 2009 - 23RD APRIL TO 11TH OCTOBER - PART SIX ****** Includes the castle, raised flower beds, powered parachute light sport aircraft fly-by, dahlias, evening photos and herons ****** This is the last video in the BUGA 2009 series ****** Video: 27th July ****** Whether you are visiting the fairy-tale castle, the horticultural show, or the town of Schwerin itself, it is all well worth a visit, even after the show is over ****** Schwerin lies in the former east and is only one hour and forty minutes drive from Hamburg. BUGA 2009 is being sponsored by the EU, the Federal Republic of Germany and the State of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania ****** Our visit started at 9:30am and finished 12 hours later. Sadly we were unable to include the historic town centre, but we are certain to be there again, some time soon. Six videos have been created from photos and short videos and can be seen here on our YouTube channel. ****** The horticultural show consists of seven gardens (see map link below) featuring a brand new 21st century garden and a further six historic gardens. From all the gardens, the castle plays an attractive and central role. Throughout the show, cafés, restaurants and even a BBQ can be found. Prices are suprisingly low for an event of this nature ****** Trains, buses and trams are available and a special parking area for handicapped persons is available ****** An amazing amount of restoration has taken place, since the terrible neglect of the communist regime came to an end in 1989 ****** We would like to thank the friendly organisers for welcoming us to the show and for the well organised and well designed information pack ****** Website in English: http://www.buga-2009.de/en/ ****** Map of gardens: http://www.buga-2009.de/en/garden-festival/the-buga-site/site-plan/ ****** Schwerin tourist information office.
