The Hague

The Hague is the government city of the Netherlands and with more than 500,000 inhabitants the third largest municipality in the Netherlands (after Amsterdam and Rotterdam). Both the government and the parliament are located here and this city is the residence of our royal house. Although Amsterdam is the real capital of the Netherlands, many people will argue that it is The Hague that actually fulfills this function.

In The Hague, there is much more to experience than just political matters. Many tourists like to visit Scheveningen, Madurodam or the Museon and the more culturally oriented visitors can indulge in the Mauritshuis, the Kurhaus or in the New Church. The Hague  does have something for everyone!
