Around 7 million tulips are expected to bloom at the Keukenhof Gardens creating a kaleidoscope of colour to brighten up social media feeds.

Now people from around the world come here to see them – and be seen, especially social media influencers looking for bright bloom like these to catch the eyes of browsers.
The Keukenhof is the perfect spot, with specially created giant clogs, floral archways, and pink velvet couches for people to pose and pout.
