Lisse (Keukenhof)

A trip to Keukenhof, the largest tulip farm in the Netherlands, is the best way to truly recognize that you are there. More than 7 million tulips, daffodils and hyacinths give a color and perfume show at the Keukenhof, Holland’s largest tulip park, which attracts millions of visitors worldwide.

It is situated in the village of Lisse, only 40 minutes drive from Amsterdam. When you come here in the spring, you'll be rewarded with an incredible view of many tulips in bloom, all set in a beautiful park-like environment that makes for the ideal backdrop for at least one selfie. Keukenhof also referred to as the "Garden of Europe" in the Netherlands, is one of the most extensive public gardens in the world and covers an amazing 70 acres. The Bollenstreek, an annual flower parade that winds through the town, is a local celebration of the flowering season. Additionally, Lisse is home to a museum dedicated to the history of the nation's most important flower.
