A rose amonst the tulips! HaHa - Keukenhof

On the Only Day When the Sun Appeared...

I had to choose between seeing the gardens or standing in line all day at the Van Gogh museum. It is my opinion that I made the best choice. The gardens are a floral masterpiece and the displays were like none I have ever seen.

Pros and Cons

Pros:7 million flowers
Cons:Only open for 2 months each year
In a nutshell:So much beauty in one place.

Last visit to Keukenhof: Apr 2002
