About three hours south of Stockholm is Bankeryd, the second largest locality situated in Jönköping Municipality of Sweden.
The area is primarily farms, and typical Swedish red homes. The area is green for as far as the eye can see, and while you drive the open roads, you will commonly see the buttercup flowers in blossom.
According to swedishlapland.com, “In the low altitude areas – vegetation is richer than in the high altitude areas. The glacier buttercup (Ranunculus glacialis) is a mountain plant that grows between rocks in high altitude areas – preferably 1000 mamsl (meters above mean sea level), a very barren biotope.”
But more than anything, it is just plain beautiful.

Gosh, how beautiful! Mother Nature really knows how to plant a garden. That is a really lovely photo of the two of you. What wonderful photographs! 🙂
The yellow was located all around that area, so we HAD to stop for a photo 🙂
Your photos are wonderful! I particularly like the one of the two of you with that nice background. It looks like our backyard, or so I wish! :))

Oh, yes. The red buildings and the buttercups! You were there at the perfect time, Emily. 🙂
