The Royal Keukenhof Park, the world's largest flower garden, located in the Dutch town of Lisse, is celebrating its 75th anniversary.

Keukenhof Park was founded in 1949 by a group of Dutch tulip growers and exporters to showcase their products.

Hundreds of thousands of visitors come here every year to admire 7 million flowering bulbs, of which about 4.5 million are tulips of a hundred varieties.

The 32-hectare park in Lisse is a popular attraction in the Netherlands, with about 1.4 million people visiting it in 2023.

This year, one of the attractions of the flower exhibition was a golden yellow tulip named after King Charles III.
