Truly beautiful Ibrahim, it looks like a bouquet. We can buy bougainvillea here, but it is not hardy so has to be brought in for the winter. Looking at yours has made me think that it would be worth all the effort. Is this one plant?

yeah it's one plant. I think they hybridise this one. There one big trunk and 5 branches been inserted to the main trunk. I think they do that on citrus trees as well.

This was on the street.

Oh I see, like when they graft different types of apple on to one trunk, mainly to fertilise each other, but this is done purely for the beauty. What a lovely idea:-)
