No, it's not pronounced Koiken hoof, nor zie Kitchen hofe. (a kitchen is a keuken in Dutch, a hof is a garden).
It's Keu-ken-hof. Ask your Dutch parents / friends how to pronounce it.
Anyway, near the Hague, up north behind the North Sea dunes is the famous Keukenhof: a park full of Dutch flowers: narcisses, hyacinths and first and foremost our famous tulips. Open two months a year and we decided to visit it on the first day of Pentecost.
For us it's reliving our very early youth. The place, and especially the amount of flowers is amazing. All the colours, it is absolutely a sight for sore eyes!
Apart from the flowers we took pictures of people who were taking pictures of each other.
Enjoy!
