Lonely Planet review for Amsterdam Tulip Museum

Sponsored by a bulb-growing company, this small, rather clinical exhibit traces the prince of petals from its beginnings in Turkey. Displays cover Tulipmania, bulbs as food in the war years, and present-day scientific methods of growing and harvesting. A highlight is the tulip paintings by 17th-century painter Judith Leijster, a student of Frans Hals. The gift shop is one-stop shopping for all your tulip souvenirs.

    small, but quite informative

    adkleid recommends this,

    at a glance seems to small to be worth it, but its quite educational on where tulips are from, how they are grown, and the economic chaos they caused in the Netherlands.
