A GOTHIC MASTERPIECE OF A CITY
As the Netherlands’ third largest city after Amsterdam and Rotterdam, The Hague is the capital of the province of South Holland. It’s home to some rather important establishments, like the Supreme Court, the International Court of Justice, the International Criminal Court, and the working palace of the Dutch royal family – quite an important place, then.
It’s a vibrant city, known for its rich history, cultural diversity, and beautiful scenery. Explore historic landmarks, such as the Binnenhof, a mediaeval complex housing the Dutch Parliament, and the Peace Palace, an iconic symbol of international law and diplomacy. A stroll to the Palace Noordeinde – set among trendy boutiques and cafés – shows how integrated Dutch royalty is in the city.
Art enthusiasts will appreciate the Mauritshuis museum, known for its collection of Dutch Golden Age masterpieces, including Vermeer’s “Girl with a Pearl Earring”. Beyond its cultural attractions, The Hague offers picturesque parks, bustling markets, and charming neighbourhoods to discover. Take a stroll along the Scheveningen beachfront, or explore the vibrant streets of the city centre, lined with quirky shops, cafés, and restaurants. With its dynamic atmosphere and diverse attractions, The Hague is up there as a must-visit city break destination.
