Every 2 years the Grand-Place (central square) in Brussels is covered with a flower carpet of begonias during 3 or 4 days. The carpet of 77 m x 24 m is composed by about 120 volunteers, with nearly one million begonias.

In 2016 the event was from Friday 12 to Monday 15 August 2016 at the Grand-Place (Grote Markt) in Brussels.

(Athough they said it is made of Belgian Begonias, I noticed a lot of Dahlia's !)

The theme in 2016 was Japan, and you can see the Japanese flag in the design, Koi carps, Bonsai , Bamboo and the crane bird.
