The Hague

The Hague, International City of Peace and Justice. It is a proud title, and justly worn. The Hague is home to no less than 131 international institutes and agencies. After New York, The Hague is the United Nations’ second city. The Hague is the seat of the Dutch government as well as the Royal residence.

The Hague’s most unexpected asset for many is the beach, providing a unique opportunity to unwind and enjoy the invigorating sea breeze. A different but equally rewarding way to spend your free time is to stroll through The Hague’s beautiful historic city centre, where a maze of age old narrow streets offers a lively atmosphere of culture, fine cafes and restaurants as well as surprising shops and boutiques.

Culture is an essential ingredient in The Hague. Besides catering to a broad audience with its many annual festivals and its theatres, the city features excellent museums, such as the Municipal Museum, where you will find the world’s biggest collection of works by Piet Mondriaan, along with some of the finest works by artists of the Hague School and other contemporary artists. In the world of modern dance, The Hague is known as the home base of the renowned Nederlands Dans Theater, one of today’s most revered modern dance companies.

Historical venues, international charisma, beautiful surroundings and a broad range of cultural activities all guarantee that your stay in The Hague will be a memorable one.
