Keukenhof

I've just had an email today Keukenhof in the Netherlands saying that they are open now and in full bloom. If you've never been to Keukenhof and have the chance to go, I would definitely urge you to do so at this time of year it is stunning.

Keukenhof is the largest bulb flower garden in the world, dedicated to spring bulbs, tulips, narcissi, hyacinths the list goes on!  They say more than 7 million flowers!

I've been looking back at photographs of a trip we took there when we went to Amsterdam for my birthday in 2010, and thought I'd share a few of the photos with you.


Just drink in the colours of these stunning flowers....








Spectacular view across the bulb fields


Just one small corner of the glass houses - so many varieties!
 







Its definitely on my list of somewhere I would love to revisit.   Hope you enjoyed the photos.
