The history of Keukenhof goes back to the 1400s. At first, it was part of the castle (城堡) of Countess Jacqueline. She used it to grow fruit and vegetables for use in her kitchen. That’s how Keukenhof got its name. It means “kitchen garden” in English. Then in 1949, a group of tulip (郁金香) lovers decided to have a tulip show in the garden. Then the Keuhenhof flower garden was born. It first opened in 1950. Since then, there has been a tulip show in the garden every spring. Keukenhof is home to 800 kinds of tulips as well as other flowers. Gardeners grow more than 7,000,000 flowers by hand in autumn. It usually takes them over 3 months to finish the job. Keukenhof is not open all year round. It is a spring garden, as flowers are only at their best from the middle of March to the middle of May.
