    Tulip Museum and Cheese Museum

    November 17, 2023 in the Netherlands ⋅ ☁️ 7 °C

    The Tulip Museum and Cheese Museum were right across the street from Anne Frank House and both were awesome spots.

    The tulip museum was $5 to enter and talked about the history of the flower and how it came from the Himalayan Region. It was originally a gift for royalty. We also learned 1 tulip bulb can turn into 4-6 bulbs the next season. The one you buy in stores is the main bulb from the 4-6. It takes a few seasons to get the bulb large, and we learned the bulbs grow more when the flowers are cut, so some farmers here cut down all the flowers.

    The cheese museum was also a fun stop, it was a cheese store with a museum underneath, and while it was no Smithsonian it was free and fun. We tried lots of cheeses here.
