Dutch tulip growers invite everyone to pick a bunch of tulips for free in a specially created picking garden. A tulip picking garden has been set up again at the Museumplein in Amsterdam with as many as 200,000 tulips. The picking garden opens at 1:00 PM and everyone is allowed to pick a free bunch of tulips.
Activities and atmosphere
