Keukenhof – The Garden of Europe

---

 

Keukenhof, often called the "Garden of Europe," is one of the world's largest and most beautiful flower parks, located in Lisse, the Netherlands.

 

Each spring, millions of flower bulbs burst into bloom across 32 hectares of parkland, creating a vibrant, colourful spectacle that attracts visitors from around the globe.

 

The gardens are set in the scenic grounds of the historic Keukenhof Castle, dating back to the 17th century.

 

Meandering paths lead through expertly designed themed gardens, lakes, and pavilions, offering breathtaking views of tulips, daffodils, and other spring blossoms.
