Thuringen, a region in Germany known for its natural beauty and historical landmarks, offers a diverse range of attractions. In the enchanting landscapes of Thuringia, you can find the Sweet Mock-orange or English Dogwood -Philadelphus coronary-, an ornamental shrub that blooms with delicate flowers, adding a touch of elegance to the surroundings. Another delightful sight is the Cowslip -Primula veris-, which blankets Thuringia with vibrant colors during its flowering season. This charming flower brings joy to both locals and visitors alike as they wander through the picturesque countryside. For nature enthusiasts, Wood Sorrel -Oxalis acetosella- growing on dead wood in UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site Nationalpark Hainich is truly captivating. The juxtaposition of life emerging from decay showcases the resilience and beauty found within this unique ecosystem. In contrast to these serene scenes, it also holds historical significance. A night scene depicting the Battle of Jutland during World War I reminds us of past conflicts that shaped our world today. It serves as a poignant reminder to cherish peace and unity. Moving on from war-related history, Erfurt presents a peaceful image with a Greylag Goose -Anser anser- standing gracefully in a meadow. This tranquil setting invites visitors to relax and appreciate nature's wonders. The Jeffreys Shooting Star or Sierra Shooting Star -Dodecatheon jeffreyi- adds another burst of color to Thuringia's landscape when it blooms each year. Its vibrant petals create an enchanting display that captures hearts wherever it grows. Azaleas are also prevalent in Thuringia; one notable variety is Saturnus Mollis hybrid Rhododendron. These stunning flowers bring bursts of pink hues throughout gardens across the region, creating breathtaking displays for all who witness them. Nature lovers will be captivated by Hainich National Park's beech forest, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
