The area is getting ready for all the visitors in the next weeks. From the outside you can see that the bike rental is placed at the new parking lot at Keukenhof. And the bulb sellers are setting up their shops along the roads.

The Golden Age – Keukenhof Theme 2016
The Keukenhof theme for 2016 is “The Golden Age”. The era in which the Netherlands went through a flourishing period in the field of trade, arts and sciences. This was also the period in which the world was discovered and the tulip trade thrived.
Amsterdam Tulp Festival
Every year many tourists visit the Keukenhof to see all kinds of tulips. But wouldn’t it be a great idea to see the tulips in the city of Amsterdam as well? Landscape architect Saskia Albrecht decided after visiting the Tulip Festival in Istanbul to organize a tulip festival in the city of Amsterdam.
Dutch Kissing Couple
Every now and than I come across something typical Dutch in a new way. All the people who have travelled to the Netherlands will remember the Dutch Kissing Couple. You can find them in all shapes and formats at the tourist- and souvenir shops.
Hilton Airport Schiphol
I spend some time at airport hotels outside the Netherlands so when I was invited for the tour and opening of the Hilton Airport Schiphol I was curious how airport hotels looked like in the Netherlands. I really wanted to know if the Hilton Airport Schiphol Hotel could be a match for the readers of Tulips in Holland.
