I was looking up for some travel destinations to celebrate hubby's birthday and I came upon this information which I think very little people know about. So, I wana share it with you guys and I think it will bring more attention to the beautiful sceneries down under.
Jacaranda Blossoms commonly referred to as the "Dream Tree", are beautiful lilac trees that bloom from October to November, transforming Sydney into a sea of purple, and seeing the pictures shared, it's comparable with the cherry blossoms and sakura season...For those that are also looking for a getaway and am keen to check out the Jacaranda Blossoms, here are some of the best spots for that Insta-worthy shot.

Grafton Jacaranda Festival
Happening from 27 October – 4 November, the annual festival is held under canopies of purple blossoms and commences regally with the crowning of the Jacaranda Queen and Princesses. The fun family event features local arts, crafts, and sporting groups all showcasing their work.
The festival culminates with a float parade of enormous proportions on Saturday afternoon followed by a sunset family concert on the Riverbank. Sunday morning, for one last chance to tread the Jacaranda blossom carpeted streets, there is a Fun Run which includes a run across the famous bendy bridge.

Circular Quay, Sydney
The blooming jacarandas perfectly frame the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge, Sydney Opera House and historic cobblestone streets of The Rocks for a picture that captures attention. Strolling along the harbour with your loved ones would make a special memorable shot.

Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney
Take a long languid stroll in Sydney’s famous Royal Botanic Gardens. A short walk from Circular Quay and Hyde Park, the garden has thousands of plant specimens. Wildlife in the garden includes colourful birds, fruit bats, and water dragons. The Calyx is a world-class horticultural space, with changing exhibitions designed to capture your imagination.
I'm seriously considering this season in Sydney to be our next trip, now to make sure hubby has enough leave to take. LOL!
