In Greek mythology, Narcissus was the beautiful youth who perished after falling in love with his own reflection in a pool and ended up changing into the flower that bears his name. This story serves as a warning against the dangers of vanity but can also be interpreted as an invitation to self-discovery. Those who recognize and embrace their own light gain true self-confidence – not from arrogance, but from a healthy sense of self-worth. In the spectacular Ausseerland region of central Austria, the narcissus is celebrated in grand style every year. At the Narzissenfest, Austria’s largest flower festival, the delicate bloom of the star shaped narcissus takes center stage. The highlight of the multi-day event is the magnificent parade of elaborate floral sculptures. Lovingly crafted with great attention to detail, these figures – ranging from animals and mythical creatures to traditional motifs – are paraded through the streets before being gently floated across the lake.
