Rose Festival in Arcen, Scheduled for June 14-23: Unveiling Joyce Brueren's Secret Rose Field
Trust me, when the world seems to spin out of control, there's nothing quite like escaping to your backyard haven. In Dutch, we call it "tuin," reminding us of that cozy, protected space a bit like a fort—fenced off from the chaos of the outside world.
The garden at Arcen's grand castle park is itself secluded, but lurking within, I discovered a perfect haven even more hidden—the captivating "The Hidden Rose Field." Amid the park's daily visitors numbering in the thousands, this enchanted place whispers a sense of untouched purity, like a secret only meant to be shared in hushed tones.
It's as if you've stumbled into a playground of the elves, straight out of Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" or an ethereal world inhabited by benevolent and poetic beings. Joyce Brueren, the creative genius behind this botanical dream, has skillfully woven the magic. The area, "Lommerrijk," teases with its name—rich in shadows, hinting at creatures lurking in the depths!
Joyce Brueren is a renowned artist and designer, her hand at work in crafting extraordinary garden and art projects. At the Hidden Rose Field, she brought her artistic vision to life, blending nature, art, and storytelling to create an immersive and unparalleled visitor experience at the grand Arcen castle park.
Don't you just wish you could visit this fantasy world hidden among the roses? Light a candle, whisper sweet nothings, and lose yourself in the mystery... just remember to watch your step for those shadows!
Escaping to the Hidden Rose Field within Arcen's grand castle park is like redefining your 'lifestyle' for a while, enveloped by the tranquility of nature and the magic of art. Engaging in gardening and exploring the mystical portrayals in this 'home-and-garden' haven is akin to immersing yourself in a captivating work of art.
