In the last week of April I was driving listening to the radio in Ireland. A garden expert was talking about some strange garden in Amsterdam, Netherlands called Guekenhof (Keukenhof). He extolled it dearly. It was May bank holliday weekend, I had not other plans. So I packed up my bags and went to visit Keukenhof. Flew by Rayan airways to Eindovan airport. Unfortunately 31st of april is Queens ... Read Full Entry

Peculiar to the Dutch. I do not know why this uncomfortable wooden shoe is so popular in Netherlands - not that anyboby wears them but just for tourist attractions. Also visit www.ken the teaman.com for more views

I thought the garden was exqusitely beautiful and also very very popular with South Koreans. I was wondering how to capture the essense of Keukenhof on that day. So came up with this image after some fooling around in photoshop. This one combines the sunny day with Sumptuous Tulips, the wooden shoe of Netherland and the Korean tourists. I like it. Hope you guys will like it tool Also visit www.ken the teaman.com for more views

After the garden visit this was in Zanvoort zee beech, the sunset and the surfers call it a day. And so I did it too. Hope you guys enjoyed my account of my trip to Keukenhof. If you get a chance please to do not miss this marvel. Keukenhof is open for 2 months in April and upto May 20th every year. It gets 2 million visitors in 2 months !!!!

advice
lovely pics....did u take the tour of the garden or on your own?i am short of time, so wondering if tour wil b possible?
2nd April 2009

I took a tour bus from Amsterdam to Lissie where the garden is. Its about one hour travel. Its better to take tour from Amsterdam as it will save lot of hassels. You will need about half day to visit the garden. Garden itself will be about 2 hours and you have to add the travel time from Amsterdam.

Lovely!
Wonderful garden with artistically appealing landscapes. I would simply love to visit Keukenhof Gardens when I visit the Netherlands next, the previous time being as a child.

Simply great! & Absolutely fantastic!
Great Work! Keukenhof is undoubtedly one of the best places on the planet. I shall be grateful if u can keep fwding snaps related to this garden as frequently as possible. Is it true that a special flower show takes place here once in every 12 years? What's the best season to visit it? I understand that tulips don't bloom all the year around
