When you come to the Netherlands during the Spring there are two must do activities everyone must do.

1) Kings Day. This is a national holiday on April 27 to celebrate the kings birthday. Everyone is out at festivals wearing orange and celebrating Dutch culture. This something you don’t want to miss.

2) Keukenhof. When people think of the Netherlands most people think of tulip fields. Well Keukenhof is the ultimate spring garden experience. You can spend all day here and never want to leave. I suggest to bring a picnic and find a nice sunny spot and enjoy the flowers and nature around you. It truly is one of the most beautiful and peaceful places I have seen. If you are in the Netherlands or anywhere in Europe for that matter, make sure to visit. You will not regret it.
