Brief introduction of Keukenhof Park

As soon as March arrived, we knew that tulips in Holland were going to bloom. This very large tulip exhibition attracts many people to enjoy the flowers here every year, and as the venue, Keukenhof Park is only open for more than two months every year, which is even more eye-catching. Let's learn about visiting Keukenhof Park today!

Introduction of Keukenhof Park

According to historical records, Keukenhof Park was the hunting ground of Countess Jacob van Belen in the15th century. It is called Keukenhof because the spices, fruits and vegetables planted in the park are used to cook in the kitchen of the countess's private castle. Dutch means kitchen and garden.

The prototype of modern Keukenhof Park was designed and built by German landscape architects Zocher and his son. After World War II, it was planned as a flower park with a large open space, and now it has become a world-famous garden model.

Every year from mid-late March to mid-late May or even early June, the world's largest tulip park will hold a grand tulip exhibition, attracting a large number of tourists from all over the world.

What to see

Coming to Keukenhof Park will be an unforgettable experience for people of any age.

In the past 60 years, it has been one of the most famous tourist destinations in the Netherlands, and it is also famous all over the world. Tulips, hyacinthus orientalis, daffodils and other flowers that open in spring are dazzling. Walking along the 15km trail in the park, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery and collect inspiration for shooting.

This is the most distinctive place in Keukenhof Park. Each garden ranges from 50- 120, each with its own theme and characteristics, from classical to ultra-modern, with diverse styles.

Every year when Keukenhof opens, the Inspiration Garden will invite designers from different fields such as fashion, graphic design, architecture and furniture to participate in the garden design.

Art Park:

There are hundreds of sculptures and works of art created by famous Dutch artists here. In addition to countless blooming flowers, Keukenhof holds art exhibitions every year. Many famous artists have left their masterpieces here, and the natural and elegant environment of the park cleverly sets off the beauty of these works of art.

Daily flower show:

Keukenhof Park also "requisitioned" the name of the royal family, and designed three unique pavilions, namely, the william alexander Pavilion at 6000m2, the Beatrice Pavilion at1000m2 and the Nassau Pavilion in ohlinger at1000m2.

William Pavilion holds the world's largest lily exhibition during its opening every year, Beatrice Pavilion holds a large orchid exhibition, and Orange Pavilion changes flowers with different themes every week.

Theme floats:

The float parade at the end of April every year is the biggest celebration during the flower show. The parade consists of more than 20 large floats and more than 30 luxury cars, walking slowly between the flower fields and the crowd. At that time, millions of flowers could be seen passing through Keukenhof Street.
