The World's Most Beautiful Springtime Garden...

LISSE, The Netherlands, Feb. 9, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Winter may still have the country firmly in its icy grip, but Keukenhof is busy preparing for spring. In 2006, the world's most beautiful springtime park will be open from March 23 until May 9.

Some seven million bulbs will be blooming in the 80-acre park, in addition a series of breathtaking indoor exhibitions will be organized. Year after year, Keukenhof inspires nature lovers and gardening enthusiasts who flock to see the latest in garden trends, with demonstrations, the park's Japanese and English landscape gardens, century-old trees, ponds and works of art. Children can follow the exciting 'Bollebozen Route' (an educational adventure trail that teaches them about flower bulbs), explore a maze, visit the petting zoo, and enjoy the playground. Once again, the Keukenhof's program of events is chock-full of activities for the coming season.
