After a dark wintertime in Europe, nothing is more colourful than the flower shows in the Netherlands!

Holland, a west European country located next to Germany and above Belgium, attracts tons of tourists to come to its flower shows every year during springtime. Spring in the Netherlands typically lies between late March and mid-May, while during May holiday (first week of May) is the busiest time for flower show visitors. Spring is also seen as the best time to visit the Netherlands, as weather is much milder and less rainy than summer.

When visiting The Netherlands, a visit to the beautiful historic city of Amsterdam is absolutely a must! Not only because of the picturesque canals, interesting museums, beautiful parks and typical Amsterdam cafes, the capital of The Netherlands has a lot more to offer, like great places to eat for every budget!

In this article you will find out what the best restaurants in Amsterdam are.

And besides women (as blokes who have put on the kilt know well) really go for it!
