荷蘭——郁金香的海洋天堂

 

　　The vibrant blues, reds, pinks and yellows sprawl as far as the eye can see in Lisse, western Netherlands, where farmers hope to make huge profits selling them to florists and supermarkets around the world. The cultivation of flower bulbs began more than 400 years ago. The tulip season begins in March and lasts until August with several shows held across the country, but the flowers are undoubtedly at their most spectacular at this time of year。

　　在荷蘭西部的利瑟，五顏六色的郁金香田地一直延伸到目之所及，這里的農(nóng)民期望通過把鮮花賣給全世界的花店和超市來(lái)獲取巨大的利潤(rùn)。據(jù)了解，荷蘭種植郁金香的歷史可追溯到四百多年前。郁金香花季從三月持續(xù)到八月，期間全國(guó)各地都有郁金香展，然而這個(gè)季節(jié)的無(wú)疑是最為繁盛的。
