flower gardens, situated in Lisse, South Holland, Netherlands. According
to the official website for the Keukenhof Park, approximately 7 million flower
bulbs are planted annually in the park, which covers an area of 32 hectares (79
acres).
Keukenhof is open annually from mid-March to mid-May. The best
time to view the tulips is around mid-April, depending on the
weather.
The Keukenhof features a variety of different gardens and garden
styles. For example, the English landscape garden features winding paths and
unexpected see-through points (designed by Zocher in 1830, the garden architect
of the Vondelpark in Amsterdam, among others). The historical garden is an
enclosed garden where you can see many old types of bulbs. The nature garden
consists of a water garden where shrubs and perennials are combined with
bulbous plants. The Japanese country garden is a non-traditional garden in a
natural environment.[5]
The Keukenhof doesn't contain the long fields of tulips many
visitors expect. However, there are tulip fields outside the Garden (mostly
privately owned). These fields may have restricted access and are not included
