The Hague 2023

The Hague

The Hague is the only major Dutch city by the sea. Just 15 minutes from the historical city centre, with no less than 11 kilometres of beach. A unique combination to experience the ultimate holiday feeling in all four seasons.

Dutch Masters

Visit the Mauritshuis and discover Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring or Rembrandt’s Self-Portrait. Be amazed by Escher’s Metamorphosis and see Mondrian’s transition in his Victory Boogie Woogie in the Kunstmuseum Den Haag. This is just a small selection from a wide variety of museums.

From fresh fish to exotic dishes

A visit to The Hague offers an abundance of choice for everyone. The harbour is a good choice for a sunset dinner with fresh fish on your plate. As the ‘widow of the Dutch East Indies’, the city has a wide range of Indonesian restaurants offering elaborate ‘rice tables’ in a typical colonial atmosphere.

Shopping seven days a week

The Hague has a charming and historic city centre where the shops are open seven days a week. It is a compact area where you will find vintage, fashion and department stores and art galleries within walking distance.

Green city by the coast

Given the population density of the Netherlands, visitors to The Hague are always surprised to find such an abundance of lush greenery in the city. Parks, woods, dunes and numerous green open spaces cover more than 400 hectares, meaning that no less than a third of the city is green.
