A day at the Keukenhof

 lvdpiet Says:  If you want to see spring flowers, specially the bulb flowers, you have to go to Holland. Tulips and hyacints of all sorts and colours. So much to see, enough for a whole afternoon. So if you ever are in Holland again in the spring. Go there!

Well, ofcourse you can get some food and drinks there. It's quiet pricy, but you are spending anyhow. It is not like: Lets have dinner there also. I would say: just for a snack and a drink it's okay. When you really want to have lunch or dinner, go to Haarlem or Amsterdam. Enough to choose from, good pricing and value for money. And it's only a half hours drive away!

Favorite Dish: drinks and snacks

Keukenhof Garden

Favorite thing: Keukenhof is one of the best place that I think anyone and everyone should go when visiting this country. Even though it's the largest garden in the world, your legs will never get tired as it is an awesome place and you'll never regret it.

Fondest memory: Visiting Keukenhof was the first thing that I did when I was in the Netherlands, and it gives such a wonderful memories. Since that day onwards, I planted a very good memory and impression of this country, that is the beauty that lies within this lil country.
