Mainau, the Flower Island in Lake Constance near Konstanz, is a spectacular garden island owned by an aristocratic family, famous for its dazzling seasonal displays of tulips, rhododendrons, dahlias and roses, along with a Baroque palace, an arboretum and a butterfly house. Ticketed admission gives access to the whole island, reached by bridge, boat or bus. A riot of colour and one of the most popular attractions on the lake, Mainau is a highlight of any visit to Konstanz.
