Birthplace of Vincent Van Gogh

Zundert is a small town in the Netherlands that hosts the most spectacular flower parade in the world. Famous for being the birthplace of Vincent Van Gough, the sleepy town becomes vibrant with energy every September.

The Zundert Flower Parade started in 1936 and has consistently produced breathtaking floats. The floats average 65 feet x 30 feet and the float designers are given complete creative freedom.

The surrounding villages, or hamlets as they call them in the Netherlands, compete for the top honor. Here are the Top 10 from this year.
