Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for The Hague right now.
The Hague's center is crammed with the best the city has to offer in terms of art, history, and architecture. An exploration of a relatively small area will take you to the Binnenhof, home to the famous Ridderzaal or along the leafy Lange Voorhout for a stroll through what in the 19th century was the place to see and be seen. Venture a little farther afield and you’ll come upon the Gemeentemuseum Den Haag, where works by Vermeer and other masters usually hanging in the Mauritshuis are on view.

From the beginning of May until the end of October on Thursday and Sunday, an antiques market takes over Lange Voorhout. Wandering through the stalls on a fine day, perhaps to the accompaniment of a street musician, makes for a lovely experience. An alfresco café supplies that all-important coffee and apple cake.
