Dutch Windmill
Dutch Windmill Review
It may not pump water anymore, but this carefully restored windmill, built in 1903 to irrigate Golden Gate Park, continues to enchant visitors. The Queen Wilhelmina Tulip Garden here is a welcoming respite, particularly lovely during its February and March bloom. On the south side of the park at Lincoln Way and the Great Highway, the restored Murphy Windmill reopened in 2012; swing by for an interesting comparison.
