Starting on second week of April until end of first week of May is the perfect time to enjoy tulips. Not just a bouquet of tulips, but so many tulips, as many as you can not imagine. In these months the Netherlands is covered by bright colorful tulips😍😍😍.

We had a road trip across Tulpenroute or known as 'Tulip Route'. This stunning route is not too far from Amsterdam. Less than an hour to the northeast, There is Nordoostpolder district and here we have been ➡➡➡

Nordoostpolder is an area which is 4 meters below sea level. True, the land is actually under the sea. There is a high dike fortifying this area from North Sea. And here is where the longest Tulip route in the Netherlands is, not in Keukenhof as everyone knows…😊😊😊

The Tulip Route here is about 100 kilometers long, and we've only been drive a few kilometers away because we've been driving very slowly, stopping here and there, take selfies or just take deep breath because we're stunned by beauty all colors of tulips… The sea of flowers to the horizon…! Someday I'll ride bicycle across this route😍😍😍😍

No need to fear getting lost here, because all the routes have been marked, all we need is a way to find this route➡➡➡

I will never stop enjoying this beauty, one day I will definitely back again☺☺☺

Have you ever been driving through the Tulip Route? Where was that?😊😊😊

I have published these photos also in my Indonesian-language blog here: http://www.ketimpringan.com/2017/05/panduan-jalur-tulip-route-belanda.html

good photos, and the flowers look very👍

Tulips hold a special place in my heart but the closest encounter I had with them is seeing them in flower shops (sigh). I have always dreamed of seeing this (and a lavender field in Ireland) someday like this, like they are on the photos above..real and just there (maybe that's the reason why I wanted to go to Netherlands).

Oh tulips in flower shop😁

Make sure you come in the right time to this route, otherwise you will see potatoes there😆😆

Oohh. Well noted on this. Potatoes don't seem that bad but I'd choose a field of tulips over potatoes anytime :)

@rungkhom, Thanks for your compliment, i like to take photo wherever i go:)

@wondersofnature, Yessss... i like tulips very much :)

Wow super nice😍
