La Haya

The Hague, or Den Haag in Dutch, is the third largest city in the Netherlands and the official political capital of the country. Located on the North Sea coast on a strip of land between the provinces of North and South Holland, the city offers a unique mix of traditional Dutch culture, modern industry, and international institutions. The premier attraction in The Hague is the Hofvijfer, the old city centre located in the heart of the city. This area features many grand 17th century buildings, including the Binnenhof, where the Dutch Parliament meets. Other important attractions include the historical old market in the centre, the Maurtisplein and Korte Vijverberg, home to many of the city's government buildings; the Escher Museum of Modern Art; and the beautiful waterfront in Scheveningen. La Haya, a peaceful spot in the old centre of The Hague just north of the Hofvijfer, is popular with locals and tourists alike. At the quay The Pier is the perfect spot to relax, grab a bite to eat, or take a cruise down the canals. Whether you are looking for culture and tradition or a place to relax, The Hague has something to offer for everyone!
