postcrossing #30
A postcard from the Netherlands showing a sea of yellow tulips! Tulip is the national flower of the Netherlands. Tulip has a great association with tulip. According to wikipedia, this country produces as many as 3 billion bulbs annually. And the official year that tulip introduced to this country is 1594.
The stamp about windmill has been introduced before. And the other stamp was released in 2012, from the series called “Netherlands in the Atlas “. There are ten stamps from the series. And a whole picture of the Netherlands’ map would be seen if we place all stamps together. The words from next to the stamps briefly says:
since the 80’s , planning is a constant theme in the atlas, with pen subdivided as urban networks, spatial structure as main parts, also the Green Heart (The Groene Hart – English: Green Heart is a relatively thinly populated area in the Dutch Randstad. ) is mapped
The air mail sticker is so beautiful! Thanks Barbara from the Netherlands!
