Bulb fields along the Dutch west coast have erupted into a kaleidoscope of color as tulips and other flowers burst into bloom. The most easily accessible fields are mainly found in the coastal strip between the cities of Leiden and Haarlem and are easily accessible by car or train from Amsterdam. Sitting on the top floor of a double-decker train is actually one of the best vantage points to view the broad bars of different colored flowers stretching over pancake-flat fields. If you want to get an even closer look, pay a visit to the world famous Keukenhof park and its flower displays in Lisse, about 25 miles south of Amsterdam. The Keukenhof is open thru May 20.
