When you can leave work and still have time to enjoy a mug of beer before the sun goes down, you know spring is knocking at the door. What better way to bring it in that with a trip to a flower show?

當(dāng)你發(fā)現(xiàn)下班了以后太陽還不緊不慢地掛在天上，你還能慢慢悠悠地喝杯啤酒的時候，證明春天已經(jīng)來了。在春天里，還有什么比去看花展更合適的活動呢？

Before the flowers get picked up by traders, or get turned into a bottle of luxury bathing oil, pull out the dusted floral print dress and head for these blooming great flower exhibits。

把衣柜里積了灰的碎花裙子翻出來吧，穿上它去參加一場鮮花爛漫的展覽。記得要趕早，否則花兒們很快會被游人摘走，或被收集而壓榨成一瓶瓶昂貴的精油。

Keukenhof, Lisse, Holland

荷蘭：庫肯霍夫公園

Every year, 32-hectare Keukenhof in Lisse is overlayed with more than four millions tulips and other flower species. Once a herb garden for a Dutch countess' kitchen in the 15th century, it has grown into the largest bulb flower park in the world.

每一年，庫肯霍夫公園32公頃的面積上都開滿超過400萬朵郁金香，當(dāng)然還有其他別的花卉。庫肯霍夫公園在15世紀(jì)時曾經(jīng)是一位荷蘭女伯爵夫人的香草園，現(xiàn)在已是全世界最大的球莖花卉公園了。

There are 15-kilometer footpaths, several cycling trails as well as a one-hour boat tour. Seats for the boat tour are limited, so be there early to guarantee a place. On the "Walk of Fame" you can see tulips named after famous people, non-fictional and fictional, such as Mozart, Ronaldo, Lion King and even a Teletubby.

公園的小徑有15公里長，除此以外，還有幾條自行車道以及1小時路程的游船項目。游船的位置有限，所以如果你想登船的話，記得早點去。在“名人之路”上你能看到一些用名人命名的郁金香，他們中有真實人物也有虛幻角色，比如：莫扎特、羅納爾多、獅子王，甚至還有天線寶寶。

The annual flower parade will be held on April 21 this year, starting from Noordiwijk to Haarlem (outside Keukenhof) and will pass through Keukenhof in the afternoon. Visitors are allowed re-entry into the park after the flower parade on that day.

一年一度的花卉游行今年將于4月21號舉行，從Noordiwijk到Haarlem(在庫肯霍夫公園外)。游行隊伍將在下午穿過公園，當(dāng)天游客可以在游行結(jié)束后二度進入公園。
