Lisse: Keukenhof - Nature Photography
Keukenhof is a world-famous flower garden located in Lisse, Netherlands. Nicknamed "The Garden of Europe".

The history of Keukenhof dates back to the 15th century. It was originally the kitchen garden ("keuken garden" in Dutch) for Jacoba van Beieren, the Countess of Bavaria. Since 1949, flower bulb growers showcase their blooms and promote the Dutch horticulture industry.

Every year, between late March and mid-May, Keukenhof comes alive with over 7 million flower bulbs in 800 varieties. These bulbs are meticulously planted in intricate designs, creating a breathtaking tapestry of colors and textures. Tulips are the stars of the show, but also find a dazzling array of hyacinths, daffodils, lilies, orchids, and many other springtime favorites.

Visitors can also enjoy, Thematic gardens, various Pavilions, art expositions, windmills, events like parades, flower shows, and live music.
