Mainau Island (Germany), the botanic garden in Lake Constance, offers wonderful nature experiences. At this time of the year, thousands upon thousands tulips are in bloom. (It is said, they plant around 400'000 bulbs each year).
50 varieties of tulips transform Mainau Island into a radiant ocean of flowers, this is "spring avenue" (my favorite), where the tulips grow in a wild meadow, on other places there are neatly arranged in colourful flower beds, or they board the mediterranean terrace with its swan font.
Of course we also admired all those old trees in the park, the orchid exhibition and we visited the butterfly house. A great day with my parents and my aunt.
The city of Holland, MIchigan, USA also has a yearly tulip festival celebrated by thousands of tourists. It is one of the largest tulip festivals in the United States.
