Daffodils are blooming, the days are getting longer, and bumblebees are starting to emerge from hibernation. This can only mean one thing: spring is right around the corner, and nowhere does it better than London; at least, that's what Travelbag claims.

In a recent research project, Travelbag counted hashtags used on Instagram from 170 destinations worldwide, and #springinlondon came in at number one, with over 100,000 posts. Paris came close at 79,000, but nowhere else got much closer than that. Seattle on the west coast of the US came in at third, followed closely by Melbourne, Chicago and Sydney. Other pretty destinations featured in the top 10 were Berlin, Boston and Vienna. This means London trumped everyone by a whopping number of tags. We'll take that.

London is delightful throughout this time of year, so it's no surprise it's been crowned number one. At Thatsup, we're big fans of spring, and we've created all kinds of guides to ensure you can make the most of the longer, warmer days in the city. From where to see the cherry blossoms and the best beer gardens in the city to lovely London walks and beautiful forests. Get planning.
