5 Historic Sites in Voorhout That You Shouldn't Miss

July 27, 2021 Jasper Kershner

In a quirky Dutch-ism, Amsterdam may be the official capital of the Netherlands, but it’s The Hague (Den Haag) where the government sits (along with several international courts, for which the city’s best known). Cosmopolitan and cultured, The Hague is Holland’s third-largest town, with just under 500,000 people. Conveniently, the beach resort of Scheveningen is part of The Hague, and en route lies the family-friendly Madurodam, a fascinating 1/25 miniature display of a fictitious Dutch city.

Plein

Reviewed By Hermes_NL - Amsterdam, The Netherlands

The Plein (or The Square in English) was created in 1632 by governor Willem Frederik on the locations of the gardens outside the Binnenhof. Amsterdam and Rotterdam built mansions there to provide accomodation for their officials visiting the government. Now it it is a very lively city square with lots of restaurants and cafes and a great view of the modern Hague skyline with a number of architecturally interesting highrises.
