Feast your eyes on the fairy-tale-like tulip fields in the 400-year-old ancient village

Tulips can bloom all over the world , but only in the Netherlands do they show off their unique color and elegance.

Beemster Village (Netherlands) is located 30km north of Amsterdam. This is one of the places that grows a lot of tulips in the land of windmills.

The 400-year-old ancient village is recognized by UNESCO as the first place to reclaim the sea, so the land is fertile, suitable for agricultural development such as growing tulips, vegetables, raising sheep and dairy cows.

Most of these are private farms of wealthy merchants who grow tulips for export all over the world.

Ms. Lips Pham (originally from Dien Bien ) has lived in Beemster village for more than 15 years. She said that not a single day during that time has she stopped feeling surprised and happy when she wakes up in the morning, opens the window and sees a sea of tulips swaying in the wind.

According to Ms. Lips, every year, tulips start blooming from the beginning of April and are at their most beautiful around the beginning of May.

"This is when the village is as beautiful as a picture. This scene is not found everywhere, even in tulip-growing localities across the Netherlands. Because this place is purely agricultural in nature, the local government has only just begun to open up to visitors. tourism so it still preserves the beauty of peace," said Ms. Lips.

The tulip fields are like a giant silk strip.

Tulips originate from the Middle East, but are associated with the Dutch people and their love, pride and care for pure flowers.

Throughout the golden age of tulips, more than 1,200 varieties of tulips have been bred and cultivated in a myriad of colors.

In the Netherlands, tulips are easily found on any street, but to enjoy the charming beauty of hundreds of blooming flowers, spreading shimmering carpets of color, visitors often go to the town of Lisse; the Keukenhof national flower garden is located in the southwest of the capital Amsterdam.

Recently, Beemster village has become known to many tourists as a peaceful tulip farm. Visitors here can experience many private services such as visiting flower fields, dairy farms and learning how to make cheese with farmers.

Tulips in Beemster village have single and double flowers, with diverse colors such as red, pink, yellow, and white. On the mornings before sunrise, the tulips appear and disappear under the mist with the chirping of birds all around, creating a rare peaceful scene.

Red tulips symbolize love, "dancing" in the sunlight.

Pure white tulips stand out with orange symbolizing vitality and burning passion.

As the weather warmed up in mid-April, the farmers of Beemster village began to let their sheep and cows out into the fields to graze, where they scavenged on the harvested tulip bulbs.

The fields still have tulip bulbs left over from last season, and they continue to bloom this season.

Farmers in the village of Beemster wake up early in the morning to check every flower in the field. They cut off the damaged ones to keep the bulbs growing well.

The locals have not really started a tourist business, but there are actually buses that pass through the village, taking tourists to visit the fields.

Ms. Lips Pham suggests that people should come at the two most beautiful times of the day: dawn and dusk. In addition, to hunt for beautiful photos, visitors should wear monochrome outfits and pose with flowers.
