Why people go

The Netherlands has one of the oldest Bollywood connections in Europe: Yash Chopra shot 'Dekha Ek Khwab' from Silsila (1981) in the Keukenhof tulip gardens, and that single sequence β€” Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha among the tulip beds β€” is why tulip fields occupy the place they do in the Indian romantic imagination. KLM has flown to India for decades, serving Amsterdam nonstop from Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru, and IndiGo chose Amsterdam for its first-ever long-haul nonstop in July 2025. There's also a real community anchor: The Hague has one of continental Europe's largest Hindu populations, built around the Indo-Surinamese community whose ancestors came from Bihar and eastern UP β€” the Paul Krugerlaan area is effectively The Hague's Little India.
