Keukenhof can be translated to mean kitchen garden, a reference to the herbs grown here while the castle was used as a residence. Keukenhof represents the largest flower garden in the world. You’ll find almost 7,000,000 bulbs and 800 different varieties of tulips spread over nearly 80 acres.
Although a trip to the gardens promises plenty of tulips, the garden is also home to the largest lily show on Earth. It takes about 30 full-time gardeners to keep the gorgeous garden looking its best and producing the most beautiful tulips in the world.
