From Keukenhof Gardens to the Van Gogh Museum: planning a tour of the Netherlands
Spring is probably the best time to travel to the Netherlands. This is the time of year when the incredible flower fields bloom. You can already book your tickets, and if you have any doubts, we will quickly dispel them.
Keukenhof Gardens
The best place to visit in spring. During this season, many stunning crocuses, daffodils and hyacinths bloom here. Tulips bloom here starting from mid-April.
Every year the flower park changes its appearance. In 2024, Keckenhof will celebrate its 75th anniversary. The theme of the anniversary is still a secret.
In addition to the "huge flower garden", there are various statues. You can admire many exhibits created by national and foreign artists.

Bicycles, tulips, windmills
The best thing to do in spring in the Netherlands is to join a bike tour through the flower fields. The competition takes place in Lisse. This is where the Keukenhof Gardens are located.
Amsterdam in the height of spring
Of course, you have to visit the capital of the Netherlands. Even if you don't plan to do anything in particular, it would be great to just wander the streets and admire the flowering trees.
Zaanse Schans
Just a stone's throw from Amsterdam, you will find dozens of beautiful historic windmills that demonstrate the life of the Dutch in the 17th and 18th centuries. You can go to some of the working mills, visit a Dutch cheese factory, or book a boat tour.

Kinderdijk
It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The village has 19 wooden structures designed to grind grain, standing along the water. By the way, they were built to prevent the land from flooding. These structures are a symbol of how the Dutch manage water.
