Wow - where are those gardens?

Goodness, I thought the garden was in Germany until I searched more closely. That's the one I've seen on tv, come to think of it, it might have been Home and Garden TV. I'll ask hubby. Anyway here's a snip of the history and link.

History of Keukenhof

In the 15th century, the area where Keukenhof is now located consisted of woods and dunes. Here game was hunted by the inhabitants of the Teylingen castle, the remains of which can still be seen. From 1401 to 1436 this estate belonged to the Countess of Holland, Jacoba van Beieren. It was her court to sojourn, to hunt and to gather herbs for the castle's kitchen. Hence the name Keukenhof (kitchen garden).

Now I'm going to have to try and find the garden I thought this one was. Did that make sense?
