After seeing all those Tulip pics in many blogs, i was so tempted to go and visit and yesterday was the day.
Tulip Time in Holland, MI is the official celebration of one of the largest Dutch ethnic events in the midwest United States. If you have always wanted to see a close imitation of the Netherlands, visit Holland, MI to see beautiful tulip fields in full bloom.
Visitors from all over the world come to see millions of tulips planted in parks, gardens and lanes throughout the Holland, Michigan community.
Some of the highlights of holland visit are Dutch culture with tulips, parades, street scrubbing, carnival, Dutch Dancers, concerts, theatre shows, art and craft fair, fireworks, kids events, trolley tours, and so much more!
If you are taking children and the family to Holland, make sure to visit Nelis' Dutch Village. Dutch Village is a family theme park, it offers a beautiful setting for family fun.
Last year i enjoyed Tulips in Niagara(link), and this year it was Holland, check out some of the beautiful tulips.
There are a lot more beautiful pics to show you but too much of anything is not good...........so i end it up here.
Have a nice day!
