I can't imagine how happy the Menton Lemon Carnival in France will be

Just thinking about the lemon-themed carnival is fun. With more than 140 tons of citrus fruits, more than 18 tons of themed fruits, 8 kilometers of floral decorations, various performances, concerts and street activities, the Menton Lemon Festival attracts more than 200,000 tourists every year and was listed as a French intangible cultural heritage in 2019. Menton Lemon Carnival Guide 1. Time: February 17-March 3, 2024 2.
