Hi @NirajBhusal,

I'm really happy to see that you're back. I hope you're doing well! 

The Laligurans you've shared are just gorgeous. You've taken some great photos. Do these have a strong aroma or not so much?

I'm sharing a photo of Crocus flowers. Its Bulgarian name is Minzuhar. It is a symbol of the nature's awakening as it's one of the first flowers to grow when spring comes. Two fun facts: It is part of lots of Bulgarian fairy tales and songs, and it can be used to make the finest saffron. Here's a photo I've taken last year:

Wow amazing flowers together and the purple color with the snowy mountain looks really awesome. I hope to visit this kind of place someday and capture photos with you @NadyaPN. 

Laligurans doesn't smell so good, they look beautiful and tasty to eat too.

I am coming with another photo post tonight.

Namaste, Niraj
