Lisse, Netherlands, Mar. 20, 2008: Flowers grow out of traditional Dutch wooden shoes at a display at Keukenhof gardens.

This Saturday is a great time to visit the little Kingdom as Saturday April 26th the entire country will celebrate King’s Day to celebrate the birth of King Willem Alexander. Every town, big or small, celebrates with music, food, games and often flea markets where locals put anything they want to get rid off for sale on their doorstep. The royal family itself will celebrate the day in Doutinchem this year, but the entire country is basically one big party.
