The Hague

The Hague

The Hague is the heart of democracy and the city of peace. It is a beautiful city between Amsterdam and Rotterdam and definitly a place to visit! The Hague is a very old city, the Buitenhof was built in the 12th century. In the 14th century more people came and houses and churches were built. Since 1913, The Hague is the city for peace, as the Peace Palace got built in 1907 and was completed in 1913. Since today, it houses the International Court of Justice (which is the principal judicial body of the United Nations), the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA), The Hague Academy of International Law and the Peace Palace Library.

What to do

Scheveningen
@Rachelsojournsoul
Scheveningen is the most popular beach in The Hague. Many tourists come to this beach area, because it is easy to get here by public transport. Don't come by car, it is too expensive!

The Hague Market
@Rachelsojournsoul
The Haagse Markt is the biggest market in Europa. It has a lot to offer: from excotic fruits, herbs, tea, olives and vegetables, you can get household supplies, clothes and cosmetic to a very low price. Tip: If you can, go in the morning. From 10am on to the end it is very crowded!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
"Where to next?" The world is big and there is A LOT to see, to taste, to explore and to do! What i love about traveling is, that you learn more about cultures, the people and the history. Every country has it's own "specialty", which makes it so fun and adventures to explore. Don't forget about the food. Sitting in Italy with a glas of wine with the view of the Colosseum is a memory, you will never forget!
