KEUKENHOF PARK

In 1949 a group of 20 leading flower bulb growers and exporters came up with the plan to use the estate to exhibit spring-flowering bulbs, signaling the birth of Keukenhof as a spring park. The park opened its gates to the public in 1950 and was an instant success, with 236,000 visitors in the first year alone, 2022 will be the 73rd edition. Over the past 72 years, Keukenhof developed into a world-famous attraction.

In addition to the millions of tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths in the park, the flower shows inside the pavilions have become larger and more beautiful again. More than 600 flower growers deliver their most beautiful flowers and plants, so that visitors can see many new varieties.
