Fun things to do in The Hague: 50 fun attractions and activities

We recently visited Madurodam in The Hague, and our entire family had a fantastic time! It was perfect outing for both the adults and kids. This park is more than just miniature models; it's a interactive and educational experience. Our child loved being able to push buttons, make things move, and participate in the various activities throughout the park. It was a brilliant way to see the Netherlands' history and landmarks come to life in a way that engages younger visitors. For the adults, we appreciated the clever use of technology to make the exhibits feel dynamic. It offers a wonderful, bite-sized overview of the country's highlights. If you're looking for an outing that keeps everyone entertained and teaches them something new, Madurodam is a must-see.

I absolutely loved this place. The simulations were so amazing. I lo ed the historic stories told and the entire set up, is genius. A great place for kids but for adults alike. Its so interesting and there is so much to see, time will pass by and you would have spent almost an entire day. The best time to go is from when they open at 10.

It's a fun place to see the highly detailed miniature Dutch, Amsterdam - cityscapes, buildings, architecture, churches, airports, wind farms, wind mills, Canal systems, functional railway track and different trains running around, traffic vehicles moving on the road, ships, boats moving in the water... It was a fun time.. different big bridges recreated where it feels like a small overpass that you walk on, it's a fun get away

Great experience for adults and kids. Plenty of interactive setups to keep the kids engaged and interested, while admiring the great miniature cities. There are also other experiences scattered within the park. Good - clean - interactive and engaging activities - park for kids and adults - impressive miniature landmarks - facilities (toilets, restaurants, playgrounds)

What if a country makes a fascinating structure where the net proceeds 1st were meant for TB hospital and then later, started going towards the various Charities of the Netherlands? An awesome thrill to know indeed, that such a place does exist, leading humanity to it, where their presence collectively and perpetually, helps such charities out. Madurodam, named after George Maduro, a law student from Curacao, who was awarded 'Medal of Knight', (highest medal of Netherlands) for his tremendous valour in fighting Nazi occupation forces and who died later at Dachau concentration camp in 1945. . Madurodam, was opened for public during 1952. It is a miniature park of the 'Hague', Netherlands consisting of 1:25 scale model replicas and miniature versions of famous Dutch landmarks, cities etc. It includes indoor attractions that tell Dutch histories, art & culture, themed areas, some restaurants, and a few stores to get what-you-want including fridge magnets, bottles and smiling back items, getting ready to get picked up. Travelling to Netherlands? Ensure then, that this is added on to your MUST-VISIT place.

Madurodam was my favorite experience during my entire trip to the Netherlands. I loved exploring the miniature versions of Dutch cities and landmarks. It felt like traveling through the whole country in just a few hours. My favorite parts were steering the ships through the canals, controlling the helicopter, and interacting with the fun exhibits like attracting the fishes. The park is very well designed, with so many details that bring Dutch history, architecture, and culture to life. It’s both educational and entertaining, making it a great place for families, couples, or solo travelers. I would recommend it as one of the first stops for tourists visiting the Netherlands. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Parking was a little pricey, but that might just be my perspective as a visitor from abroad. Overall, I would definitely like to return and see it again.

Loved it, what a wonderful piece of art, that Is amazing, every zone has its own beauty, moreover nothing is less but plane ✈️ experience inside it is out standing, a must go place to bring you child here. There is also a shall canteen to have some light snacks and a souvenir shop is also there to bring some gifts. Overall a wonderful experience, but remember you must spare enough time to go there because it needs almost half day to complete it properly if you are a detail lover.

Visited Mauritshuis, a very well-known museum located in The Hague, near the Binnenhof. The first interesting thing I learned is that Mauritshuis actually means “Maurits’ house”, which is quite fascinating! However, behind the beauty of the building, the story of how its fortune was built is not entirely pleasant. However I won’t spoil it, because you should visit and find out yourself! This museum is also home to the iconic “Girl with a Pearl Earring” by Johannes Vermeer. Fun fact: we might not even be sure it’s an earring, as it doesn’t appear to be hooked! Another remarkable painting is “View of Delft”, also by Vermeer, which holds a special place in my heart since we live nearby and it carries meaningful memories. We even bought a puzzle of that painting, surprisingly affordable for something sold in such a prestigious museum! During our visit, there was also a live Q&A about painting restoration, where they were working on “The Bull” by Paulus Potter. It was fascinating to see how restoration combines art, material and chemical engineering, ethics, and history. For instance, The Bull was taken during the French occupation of the Netherlands, and at some point, a nail scratch was added to the painting. The big question is: do you fix it, restore it, or keep it as part of history? You decide! You can also download the Mauritshuis app and enjoy a free audio guide directly from your phone. I recommend bringing your own headset for the best experience. Overall, a truly great and thought-provoking experience, so I highly recommended!

A small but nice museum with a collection of beautiful paintings. I went there to see the Girl with the Pearl Earring. It was interesting to watch experts clean up one of the paintings. Staff are friendly & helpful, the museum & facilities are clean and the shop has nice souvenirs. You can buy your tickets at the reception as well as leave your coat and bags.

On a per square foot basis, this relatively small museum in the Hague might be the very best art museum in the world. The number of amazing masterpieces from the Dutch is nothing short of stunning. The ability to get close to them is even more wonderful, although people have to abuse this privilege by trying to vandalize the paintings with desserts and other terrible things. From start to finish, we were absolutely stunned by the quality and intimacy of this place. That someone who doesn’t even love art all that much, I fell in love with it.

We were iffy about going here but saw it listed as maybe the top attraction in den Haag we ponied up and I enjoyed the very impressive detail of so many paintings from around 1600s then seeing Rubens and Rembrandt I was able to see what made them different and special - luminescence and stuff so that was interesting. To save walking up the steps there is a lift but the trick is the button is on top of the post outside not on the wall so if you’re looking on the wall you’ll never find the button for the lift.

The Mauritshuis is a beautifully curated museum with an exceptional collection, including several world-famous paintings like Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring and Rembrandt’s The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp. The galleries are intimate and thoughtfully arranged, which makes it easy to appreciate each masterpiece up close. However, the museum is quite small, and the ticket price feels a bit high for the amount of time you can comfortably spend inside. Even so, the quality of the artwork and the elegance of the building make it a memorable and worthwhile visit.

The museum is relatively small in size, but the collection of artworks it houses is exceptionally valuable and impressive. It includes masterpieces by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Hals, and many other renowned artists. Despite its size, the museum offers a rich and rewarding experience. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit.

Many famous paintings are worth seeing, and the service is excellent from the front desk to the guiding staff. However, the museum’s voice guidance system isn't good enough; it has limited voice introductions to only some of the paintings and needs better optimization. It would be better to integrate it into a single system so tourists don't have to constantly switch between earphones, their own mobile phones, and the museum’s guidance devices.

Not much to see and the whole palace is quite far from the entrance meaning you won't even get a good photo. The surrounding area with all of the Villas and embassies is much better.

The Peace Palace is not only a beautiful landmark, but also a global symbol. It represents the hope of peace and the idea of true justice — a place where the world should find fairness and equality.

Website says you have to book a tour. I booked a tour called "inside the peace palace" only at the beginning to be told by the tour guide "this is not a tour of the inside of the peace palace - as it says on your tour ticket". Well that's deceptive. Frankly a waste of money to walk around the gardens and hear about the statues....don't bother booking. Ironic for the centre of transparency and truth to be so deceptive about its tours.

Peace palace is a property of Carnegie foundation. International court of Justices and Permanent court of arbitration operates out of here. Impressive building. The court room exudes authority and power. General entry is not permitted inside the building

Free admission with a free audio guide on your phone (recommend to bring your own earphones if you prefer not to use theirs). Very informative from origin to different case studies. However, there was no guided tour and we were confined to a rather small exhibition area.

The palace is beautiful, and of importance, worth a quick view. You can only see the building from the outside. There are for now only a few possibilities to enter the building, only a couple of times a year, with a tour. Book in advance. But: at of this moment no tour has been scheduled. The Visitors Center, although the people are friendly and helpful, is not worth a visit. You will not find any interesting pieces of history. And the visiting takes only 2 minutes. In my opinion it could have been so much more interesting. P.s. There are toilets inside, to enter the toilets, you need a 50 cents coin.

Truly very peaceful place The Peace Palace, Hague. The court structure is humongous and picturesque along with vast green lush beautiful garden. Also there are two significant structures; first The Peace tree where people tie peace notes which is an amazing feeling to be able to notice add your own peace note and feel part of world peace and Second a peace memorial fire which has one stone from each country put around it. This is one of a kind experience to be here.

The 360 painting mixed with real objects give you such a surreal experience. Spend your time to take a look at the painting. The details on the painting is amazing. We are looking it wasn't busy so we get to really see the whole thing. Personally I do think its worth the 16 just to see this painting. Don't forget there are also other exhibition on ground floor. The place is not big though.

Panorama Mesdag is the largest painting in the Netherlands. The museum's collection includes the works of Mr. and Mrs. Mesdag, both painters. One hall is allocated to temporary exhibitions. The panorama is beautiful and realistic, you feel like you actually live in the 19th century. Definitely recommended.

This one is a must experience. One of the most impressive works of art I've ever seen. Until 14 sept 2025 also an very impressive expo from Scarlett Hooft Graafland. Enjoy🙏🙏🙏

Very nice experience with panorama painting. They also have exhibitions sometimes.

This was understated brilliance! There are 3 rooms of paintings by Mesdag and his wife, very good introduction to the artist. Then you head through the dark passage and up the spiral staircase and you gasp at the amazing panorama. It takes you back in time as if you are there. Extraordinary! 🤯

It was a great experience to see the panorama painting. It felt like I was looking at the real city with so many details. You can even look with binoculars. Rest of the collection was also great.

Very nice museum, well maintained and nice story of it. Also very pretty museum shop. Loved the detail that the toilet doors have also a picture of an art work on it.

Amazing muzeum with a variety of motorised vehicles, from horseless carragies, motor bikes and cars, to fire engines and buses. A lot of interesting information provided. Great collection of car related art as well. The parking is quite expensive, especially given that it is a car museum.

Sore feet warning - but there are plenty of places to sit down to rest along the way. We spent three hours here - even my partner who was not interested in cars was quite absorbed - the most pre-1900 cars I’ve seen - the earliest hybrid electric - the earliest electric cars - an amazing variety in history. After that we needed a break but the on-site cafe while looking like Disneyland was disappointing. The Dutch snack plate recommended by the waiter was four deep fried potato croquettes, two deep fried chicken nuggets, maybe four tiny spring rolls of cheese and some potato crisps from a packet - not impressive. I had a white beer which also didn’t taste that good to me.

This museum is a great collection starting from the very beginning of building cars, transitioning horse wagons into motorized vehicles. A beautiful building this collection will blow your mind while you walk from one room into the next and find another treasure. It is possible to see everything in two hours walk, but if you prefer to have a better understanding of all the cars, you can easily fill up a whole day within the museum. There is as well restaurants, which looks very cozy. Overall, the experience is Really great.

Great experience. It is perhaps one of its kind! Really impressive. Some suggestions: the entrance is quite crammed with one person doing everything and no space. Also would be interesting to add how much the vehicles cost at their time and the equivalent for our days. I think it can show us how accessible the cars were for common people. Anyways it was amazing!

Really a very wonderful museum. Thought about going there for years but didn't do it till today because I thought it was expensive, small and focussed on on a few rarity cars. Boy was I wrong! The external images of the museum makes it look ehh, not large. But in reality it is. It also has 3 (!) floors. Most of the collection covers the era between 1890 till the 1960's which I really like. I wish some of the colours on these cars where available today, just marvelous. Also a lot of cars with a special place in history, a Cadillac owned by Elvis Presley, the Austin martin db5 from James Bond Goldfinger. Both cars from the British film Genevieve (which I just watched and loved). Two cars from The godfather and a lot more. Must not forget to mention the cafe which is indoors but designed like let's say a village square. Simple but lovely. Lots of eye candy. In short, don't be deceived by the external shots which make it it feel small. The place is huge and in it's own a really wonderful building, but go there and be amazed!!

Best museum I have ever visited. Cleverly designed path keep your attention, there is a piece of collection that you can relate to in every corner and it's not just cars. You can find old fuel pump, car toys, biycles, everything that is related to transportation. I highly reccomend the Museum.

What a great Museum! Incredible collection of automotive history in a stunning building. Well worth the visit and super friendly staff.

From the outside, it looks decent, but there’s nothing too exciting about it. It’s a historic place, but at the moment, a lot of the area is under construction, so it doesn’t feel very special. If you’re already nearby, it’s fine for a quick stop and a couple of photos, but I wouldn’t go out of my way just to visit. There are definitely more interesting spots around.

The Binnenhof, formerly known as the Hof van Holland, is a complex of buildings in downtown The Hague that houses the Dutch Parliament and Government. Although Amsterdam is the capital of the Netherlands, government activities are conducted in The Hague. The Binnenhof is a 15-minute walk from The Hague Central Station. Built in the 13th century, this Gothic-style castle originally served as the residence of Dutch royalty and became a political center in 1584. It is among the top 100 Dutch heritage sites. The Binnenhof is one of the oldest Parliament buildings in the world still in use...

Beautiful walk around the city. The Hague itself and the people were wonderful

Under extensive renovation until (probably) 2030, but the platform installed just besides it, provides a glimpse of its beauty

Beautiful Parliament office that sits next to the Hofvijver lake, which is also lovely with the fountains flowing, ducks, swimming, and great weather. Definitely one of the sights to see when in the area. The area on the other side is under construction and we could not see a way in to check if tours or anything were available still.

The Binnenhof, meaning "inner court," was built in the 13th century as a hunting lodge for the Counts of Holland and later developed into the country’s political heart. At its center stands the Ridderzaal (Hall of Knights), where the King delivers his annual speech on Prinsjesdag (the opening of Parliament). The complex is arranged around a central courtyard with additional small squares at the rear, housing the Dutch Houses of Parliament, the Prime Minister’s office, and key government institutions. Still in use as one of the world’s oldest parliamentary buildings, the Binnenhof has been undergoing major renovations since 2021, expected to finish by 2028 or 2030.

One of the must seen places in The Hague. Binnenhof— iconic and wonderful view and nice surroundings here- The Dutch Parliament !

Loved this musuem. It was sorry of a two for the price of one as it was housed in a formal royal palace of Emma, the Queen Mother, mother to Queen Wilhelmina. Most of Escher's famous works were on display. Left the museum appreciating the genius that Escher was. Also has a cafe but didn't access it.

An absolutely fascinating museum! The presentation of Escher’s work is outstanding — each piece is worth your time and your thoughts. Highlights include Metamorphosis III, an extraordinary 7-meter-long masterpiece that flows seamlessly from one image to another, and the mesmerizing Circle Limit series, where Escher’s genius for blending art and mathematics truly shines. The illusions room is a delight, letting you step into the kind of visual paradoxes that made Escher world-famous. A perfect blend of art, geometry, and imagination — not to be missed when in The Hague.

Amazing artworks told and explained very well. I especially enjoyed the method which documented Escher's life and work - very elegant. The decision to display his works in the palace was well made, the architecture is splendid and wonderous.

If you're into architectural signs, you'll be amazed—it's like stepping into this museum! Truly stunning and beyond your wildest dreams. I spent two hours there, but honestly, it wasn’t enough to take in all the amazing creativity. It’s absolutely fantastic!

This place bends your brain in the best way possible. It’s M.C. Escher, so yes, the famous “stairs that go nowhere” are here, along with loads of other works (including some I’d never seen before). Honestly, I half expected to walk out of the museum upside down. The ticket price is refreshingly reasonable (rare in The Hague, where even a coffee can feel like modern art). I’d definitely go again. Tip: go in the morning, there’s so much to see that if you arrive late, your head will be spinning from illusions and from fatigue. Bring curiosity, maybe a coffee, and prepare to wonder if the gift shop exit is actually the entrance.

Beautiful museum! Extensive collection and enjoyed the interactive parts at the end on the top floor. They have free lockers for your bags, a cafe downstairs, and clean bathrooms.

All round good exhibit in an historic house. Who doesn't love Escher? If you don't, this isn't for you. If you do you'll find lots of prints and background. Many of the prints are marked "eigen druk" which means "my own print." Would have been nice if they'd cracked a few windows... Lockers are in basement and use fake coins they hand out. Bathroom was decent.

The day i went i was lucky that there was an ceremony for two new ambassador so i had experienced the march and horse carriage around the palace.

Definitely worth a visit if you have the opportunity, because it's rare to see a palace that is in actual use. Only accessible for a few weeks per year, though, and with limited availability of tickets.

A wonderful experience visiting Palace Noordeinde, the working palace of the Dutch King. It’s a rare treat since the palace is only open to the public for a couple of weeks each year. We loved learning about its rich history and seeing the many beautifully decorated rooms, each with its own official purpose. We bought a combination ticket with the Royal Stables and spent about 3 hours in total exploring both. The audio guide was excellent and really brought the stories to life. Overall, a great afternoon and highly recommended if you get the chance!

Beautiful palace with a lovely architecture. This is the working palace of our king and he opened it to the public during his holidays. A good choice, the palace houses a lot of history. The works of art, various rooms give you a unique glimpse behind the scenes of the Royal House. The Tour is well organised. There are two queues and just in time I could enter. There is a set route and on arrival you can do an audio/video Tour. The audio/video Tour really comes highly recommended. You get a lot of information about the rooms and art. I enjoyed it!

We were so lucky to find tickets as the palace is open to visitors only for a few days during the summer. The entire experience is beautiful and so special! The audio guide which you'll receive at the entrance free of charge is very informative and easy to use. All the staff members were amazing, always smiling and happy to answer any questions. The palace itself is superb and unique, so worth visiting if you get the opportunity!

Beautiful working Palace of the Dutch Royalties. It was a lovely visit with about 20 rooms. The birthplace of Queen Juliana. Worth a visit!

The Noordeinde Palace in the city centre of The Hague is the official residence of the Dutch king and is located near the Binnenhof, the seat of the Dutch parliament.

Very, very impressive. I didn't expect to see such a big variety of fish. Don't hesitate to visit this aquarium. For kids this will be a big waw!

A very small sea life . I spent 20 minutes there. I was disappointed. A dozen or so years ago, there were jellyfish, but now there are none. It's a great attraction for small children. As an adult, I felt somewhat dissatisfied.

Sea Life in Scheveningen was a fun experience. The aquariums were accompanied with interesting information on the inhabitants and the ecosystems they usually live in. My personal highlight was the otter, I could have spent hours watching that little guy groom,take a swim, relax.

Quite interesting for the kids, stylized interior, one can take pictures as souvenirs then printed or as magnets in the souvenir shop at the exit.

A slightly salty review of Sea Life — lots of people, little fish, expensive tickets. I went to sea life as a kid, when you could still hear touch all of the fish. I wanted to take my kid for that same experience, and while they enjoyed it, I did not. The whole set up hasn’t changed since the nineties and feels like it’s straight out of movie set for some B-movie. There are literally vending machines with candy and drinks everywhere sometimes two in one room. The vending machines crowd out the tanks and the fish and in between the bad lightening and poor air circulation, if they put some slot machines in—it would be hard to know if you’re in Sea World or Holland Casino. It was very crowded and the set up was too narrow for the number of people, which really should be capped. They have some nice sections with different types of animals including a small crocodile and and the penguins. But the enclosures are small making it hard to enjoy the experience. The underwater tunnel feels like you’re actually diving, as the air circulation is terrible and it feels like you’re deprived of oxygen walking through it. Some of the windows desperately need a clean, for instance it was near impossible to see the otters because the glass was stained so badly. I like that they did some education on environmentalism here and there and that they contribute to breeding various species. That being said, for a whopping 64-65 euros for two adults and 1 kid, this place really needs to be lifted out of the nineties. If I’m going to be paying Disney prizes I’m going to expect a ride, rather than a school of vending machines and plenty of people rather than fish in the Sea (Life)

It was a great experience with a wide variety of fish and sea creatures. It’s very well presented. A bit small for the ticket price, but still worth a visit.

25€ for a small aquarium is not worth it. Especially when it concerns the wellbeing of the maritime creatures they have. The aquariums were to small for most of them and the penguin had their wings blocked with bracelets of plastic with no need for that.

Overall, we had an enjoyable day. I visited with my 3-year-old son (under 1 meter tall), and there were enough attractions suitable for his age group. The park is well thought out for small children. A few practical notes: The lockers weren’t working, and the park is quite large. If you’re coming with extra belongings, I recommend bringing something to help you carry them easily, a stroller can be very helpful, even if you think your child won’t need it much. The women’s toilets near the restaurant area were insufficient; it’s better to use the ones in other parts of the park. I suggest arriving early in the morning and starting from the far end of the park, going against the general flow. That way, you’ll avoid long queues at the first attractions.

Drievliet is a fun and well-organized amusement park, especially ideal for families with children. While I personally enjoyed the visit, most of the rides and attractions are clearly designed with younger kids in mind. It’s a great place for a relaxed day out, but adults seeking thrill rides might find the options limited. That said, there are still a few exciting rides for older visitors, like the fast roller coaster Formule X, the wild mouse-style ride Kopermijn, the spinning coaster Twistrix, and the powered coaster Dynamite Express. Additionally, adults can enjoy rides like Nautilus, a swinging and spinning attraction, and Draaikolk, a fast-turning ride. As a whole, it’s a highly recommended destination for families with kids.

Great place to spend a day with the little ones. I really apreciated that most of the atractions were spitale for my 3.5 yo. And the ones for the older children were truely enjoyable. Also I loved the fact that the park is quite compact and don't spend a lot of time walking between the atractions, and thus we managed to enjoy almost all the atractions during one day, some even more times. Another plus was that there were no big ques (we spent maximum 10-15 minutes for the most atractive, although we went in full vacation sezon). All in all, a perfect alternative to biserica and more famous atraction parks in The Netherlands and around.

We went as a group of 8 people, including 2 toddlers, and we loved it. The size of the park is just the right size, not too big, not too small. Perfect for families with children (as the name suggests, familypark). There are enough rides for children (in our case, toddlers) to enjoy. We especially appreciated the water play park. The only minus thing is the food, there were not enough choices, and very expensive. So, I would suggest bringing your own food and snacks!

Overall we had an okay day, but that was only because I am someone who's glass is always half full! Because what happend? . Me and my daughter got stuck in the owl 🦉 ride, our car suddenly started smoking really bad and the machinist truly was not able to handle correct in that moment. I was able to put my daughter (4y) out of the car and let her wait with my oldest.. as soon as I knew they were save, I focused on the women next to me. Who was in a panic attack. With some breath work and guidance, I was able to calm her down. 2) after this, I made the decision to calm down with some food! 3 sodas and 3 sandwishes were €30. Crazy! And it wasn't even good, had to throw away the sandwich with cheese. 3) other malfunctioning attractions were also part of our experience. Which did not make us feel safe. Conclusion, we had fun. But I would not go back, as it is clearly not a safe park to go to. Be careful.

Suppose this last weekends was Halloween 🎃 celebration but they have nothing. Barely banners of Halloween and a 2 things related to Halloween. We came specially to celebrate. But not worth it. The atracciones look old or need manteinace and some paint , for the price I find there are better pret parks. And for Halloween this is not the place.

We went there on Sunday 13/7 10:45 and it was amazing! Not busy at all, jumping in every game almost instantly! There are plenty of games for all tastes, fast and slow, high and low. There are also enough tables to sit and enjoy a lunch from home or from the snack bar over there. In general it’s highly recommended especially if the kids are taller than 130cm.

I would advice mainly two things: - book in advance because there are time slots, so if you just show up you might not be allowed to enter. - the visit is split in two parts, first part is the history, second part starts where the first part starts. I almost missed this one, because it wasn’t obvious. Just go back to the front desk and they will tell you where to go. First part is more interactive, second part goes deeper into what the prison used to be. Also if you do the second part you’ll end up outside in the yard where there’s a 1812 guillotine (the original one), and also the torture chamber mentioned in the first part.

I highly recommend you going there if you come to The Hague. It’s very interesting in how far back they go. I’ll be attaching some pictures. I want to say they were truly barbaric, but again you have to think of the time. some of the pictures are the tools they used in the dungeon and on one picture you’ll see a little box in the corner and that was their toilet. It is a very fascinating museum.

Such a fun experience! Very educational and interesting—the museum preserves a piece of history that makes its visitors reflect on how far our justice and penal systems have come. The open and light museum really contrasts to how dark and intimidating it must’ve been in the 1500s. Just a really cool spot!

"The Prison Gate was originally an entrance gate to the castle of the Counts of Holland, built in medieval times. For many years after, it served as a prison to the Court of Holland. Nowadays the museum tells the story of crime and punishment across the centuries." The museum is very well preserved. When I visited the prisoner cells, I had the feeling that I travelled back in time. The museum provides valuable information about the judicial processes in history. I did not know that there are special cells for wealthy people, like a hotel room😃 There are even interactive settings, for example, by pushing a button, you can act as a judge and try to decide on a verdict! I really enjoyed my visit.

Whether a local resident or a curious traveler, a visit to this museum is sure to inspire, educate, and intrigue.

Such a brilliant place, so much history and the information on the exhibitions was amazing. They give you a booklet when you first go in and it’s a self-guided tour, then you can come back for part 2 where you follow a different route with an audio tour to guide you. I was so impressed, in particular with how close you could get to everything. You really feel like you’re immersed in the history and you can follow a story with the audio tape which helps you feel more engaged. I’d highly recommend, you’ll need around 1hr-1.5hrs for the visit.

Such a cool museum! Took me about an hour or so to get through it all so it’s not very big, but I found it perfect to come here on my day trip to The Hague! If you’re interested in learning about crime and punishment, then this is an awesome experience!!

Went to see a really nice movie about fungi and forests. While still impressive, the projection technology seems to be showing its age with rather blurry picture quality and low brightness compared to current day cinema tech. Your eyes do adjust to it if you're used to IMAX theaters. On a 28C day the viewing hall was surprisingly hot with no AC in the hall itself. Luckily we had some hand fans which made it a lot more bearable. The cinema store was cute and the staff while inexperienced were very polite. Had a nice experience, but for 17 euro admission I'd only come back if they improved their tech.

Impressive Experience at Omniversum Den Haag! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Omniversum Den Haag is a must-visit! The dome-style theatre offers a unique and immersive movie-watching experience you won’t find anywhere else. We watched OCEAN, narrated by David Attenborough — a stunning and powerful film. While we had hoped it would fill the entire dome ceiling, it was still an incredible visual journey. The sound and screen quality are top-notch, and the atmosphere really draws you in. Highly recommend for families, tourists, and anyone looking for something special in The Hague!

An unique experience. I didn't realize the dome where you view the movies is in the back of the complex and you have to walk around the entire museum to get to it(see photo). I saw the "Celebration of Pink Floyd’s legendary album Dark side of the Moon." I was expecting a music video or video set to The Dark side of the Moon. However, this was something completely different. This was more like a few artists' take on the album. The songs were remixed and set to very trippy visuals, that is really the only way to describe it. It almost felt like someone had left on the visualizer from an old Microsoft media player at times.

This place is amazing!! I didn't expect it to be this cool. We took a 10am session to see the turtle odyssey and it was beautiful. Smartly only 47 min because my toddler was already at his end. Then I went to the museum because the ticket came together. And oh boy I didn't expect so many interactive and fun things to do! So worth the 17 euros! Other places charge you so much and offer so little. Just some tips: food could have more options and healthier ones. Also some interactive things were not well explained. The session with "men evolution " could have a warning sign. It's quite frightening for a small kid. Other than that had a great time and didn't want to leave!

It was really amazing! The film was just out of this world! We watched animal kingdom and it was really amazing. There's a lot of activities in the museum for the kids and for the adults to enjoy with their kids. Definitely recommend going!

The exhibition is great! The idea of ​​illustrating "sustainable development" is wonderful! But it's not technically well thought out. Young and older children study the questions, but soon they get tired of "thinking through" them and just run around the room, punching holes in a card slot machine without really understanding the topic. It's a bit sad.... Also we enjoyed the film in the cinema! And the museum is connected to the art gallery by a simple glass corridor! So you can simply walk there without going outside, but you'll need to buy other tickets, of course!

We tried Mesmerica in 3D dome. It was music and some 3D shapes. Requested to be there 45min earlier but didn't have any point as we needed to wait on the stairs till they open the door. In general was good to try but by looking at the ticket price didn't have much content.

Located at Scheveningen Pier is the Netherlands' first Ferris wheel, which hovers over the sea and offers spectacular views of the 11 km long beach and the skyline of The Hague. A ride on the Ferris wheel takes about 20 minutes. The enclosed cabins are air-conditioned. Tickets for the Ferris wheel can be purchased online.

⭐ De Pier – A must-visit by the sea! Absolutely loved my time at De Pier! 🌊 Beautiful views of the North Sea, cool ocean breeze, and a lively boardwalk full of food, drinks, and fun activities. Whether you’re looking to relax, take amazing photos, or just enjoy a nice walk over the water – this place is perfect. Bonus: there’s even a bungee jump and Ferris wheel for thrill-seekers! 🎡 Great spot to spend an afternoon – highly recommended!

I visited with my family and had a wonderful experience. There's convenient parking nearby and plenty of food options and activities to enjoy. My pictures attached truly don’t do justice to how beautiful and vibrant this place is. Despite the rainy and slightly overcast weather on the day of our visit, it still felt cool, refreshing, and thoroughly enjoyable. Highly recommended!

De Pier is a beautiful place to walk and enjoy the sea view. The atmosphere is lively, and the ocean breeze makes it even more relaxing. A must-visit spot in The Hague!

Amazing spot to visit. The pier itself has a massive selection of stuff to eat and do ranging from trampoline park to bungee jumping over the water. We rode the Ferris wheel and it was definitely worth the price - great views and nice long ride. Also the entire area around the pier is lively and vibrant with many vendors and people to see. This area is a must visit when in the area!

Great area to wander around, enjoy some people-watching and refresh in the sea. The beach is (oder course) very crowded. All around De Pier are a lot of souvenir shops, restaurants, bars and ice cream shops, so no one has to leave thirsty or hungry. The Big Wheel is a highlight, enjoy watching it while having a drink in De Pier own bars inside (very warm!) or from the top of De Pier. Courageous people can also do the Bungee Jump or the zip line.

Beautiful place to walk on / through or by when visiting the beach. > Great view from any place on the Pier with many areas to take a break and sit down. > Many stores and things to look at, to do or food to eat. > Horribly communicated opening and closing times / path ways, being the only downside. Oh and great to stay under if you need shelter from the sun!

We say an amazing installation, and understand their rotating exhibits are always stellar. The museum architecture is reminiscent of Tadeo Ando. The outdoor sculpture works ate exciting - modernist. The gift shop is nice. Lockers for your things are free. You'll find mostly Dutch visitors. Museum has easy walking distance from the #9 tram stop at Circustheatre.

Amazing sculptures, environment architecture and beautiful location!

A cute, small museum. They had three exhibitions aside from those elements that are permanent. Two of the three were single pieces though both were large and immersive or very detailed pieces. But you will likely only need about an hour or little more than an hour to see the full musuem.

The museum is pretty good, especially because it also allows you to sit and draw, and the outdoor pieces are also really interesting!

Although the art is quite nice. The admittance price is way too high for what you get. It's incredibly small. It also doesn't have any works that you have to see. You can skip this one.

highly recommend i think its one of the most underrated museums in the country

Fantastic museum built into the dune. Nice architecture... The art on display is beautiful sculptures. On the day of my visit there was also a children's workshop to teach them to create clay moulds. It is a pleasant museum to visit.

Really nice museum with lot's of interactive exhibits for the kids (and adults). I really recommend it for families! There's also a very nice garden and it's linked to a dome shaped cinema that often played nature documentaries.

It is a nice museum, where we need around 2-3 hours with children aged 6 years old. Interesting topics and interactive learning through different stations was the best experience for us. As adults, we also learned new things.

Very education and fun for kids, we had a good day. Don't look for Omniversum if you want to see a movie, it's called dome and located outside on the right you will find signs, again not Omniversum.. so confusing

This is a great museum for everyone. It is family-friendly, and you can spend a day exploring mankind's relationship with nature and culture. It is very educational and engaging, explaining several biological, chemical, and geological phenomena in a clear and understandable way. I strongly recommend it if you are in the area. Don't forget to combine your trip with the amazing Omniversum.

Excellent museum! Great for the kids

We were there on a weekend and it was lovely. We had a 6 and 8 year old with us and neither of them got bored in the over 4 hours we were there and that was just with the movie and skipping around the second floor. I highly recommend for anyone with children, though I would recommend it for children 5 and up as most of the displays are hip level for adults and need reading

Great place for kids and family👪, irrespective of your age, you will enjoy this small yet vast Museum. It have lots of section, though small but have lot of information . At grond floor, it's music especial so you can engage with lot of instrument and can see few pieces from the history. On 1st floor, lot of info about planet , geography, history of Netherlands, space, under water life, list if endless.. After doing this museum if you have energy left( which is difficult) you can move to omniversum, again a excellent and out of world experience. Highly recommend.. Enjoy😊

Very nice nature reserve, offering a lot of different trails through the sand dunes or to the beach. Can be crowded in the weekends. Be aware with Google maps. A lot of walking trails on Google go through closed areas, where you are not allowed to walk.

Pretty beautiful place. You can walk around or take a tour with a bike.

Really nice beach and great that it is available for dogs too. Trash cans every few meters, the only thing is there are no public toilets except for the restaurants but that's not the end of the world. Water available to clean your feet at the exit.

my favorite park of all. quiet, not that crowded, full of light, sand, trees. you can find Scottish Highland cows, horses, there’s a hedgehog shelter and it’s close to the sea. a beautiful place to meditate.

Looks like the end of the world. I was there early in the morning and it looked absolutely stunning. The sounds of seagulls, ocean waves and colder wind really gives the perfect atmosphere. Also be prepared to get some sand in your shoes!

Nice place to go for a walk. There is a good restaurant on the beach if you want to stop for a meal. We saw plenty of dogs off leash running on the beach.

Big park offering nice sceneries and some of the few hills you can find in The Hague, if you are into resistance training (running). The bike lanes are well maintained for being in an over exposed area. Open 24/7 but there is no artificial illumination (because it is a natural reserve), so I wouldn’t recommend visiting it during the night. Free entrance.

It definitely is a one-of-a-kind museum. We enjoyed the visit through and through. The desserts exhibition is sweet and lovely. The modern art floor is novel and mischievous at times. The building itself is distinctively “Mondrian”. The underground floor is particularly good which module I have never experienced earlier in other museums. It is so well designed that it managed to hold the attention of both adults and children from beginning to the end, thus serves the purpose of educating the mass audience some rudimentary knowledge of modern art. I think four hours is needed.

What a sight. Worthwhile seeing on its own. Interesting special and regular exhibitions. van Gogh, Monet, Mondrian, Kirchner, Kandinsky, Picasso, Schiele and many more to be seen. But only refering to those exceptional artists does not do justice to so many others.

Absolutely delightful! An absolutely stunning regular collection of paintings: Picasso, Kandinsky, Van Gogh, and Mondrian among others! We discovered Jacoba van Heemskerck! And what a beauty the "Grand Dessert" exhibition is! Incredibly beautiful porcelain! And then we came across the "Titanic" exhibition! Gorgeous dresses from the era of the film of the same name! What fine work, it turns out, was done by Hollywood! And, what's more, the exhibition includes costumes from the era of the actual events of the film!

Amazing place! I habe not noticed how the 4 hours passed by. Mondrian collection is stunning! I have seen works I've never suspected to come from Mondrian. Temporary exhibitions are amazing. The museum was not very crowded. I bought tickets in the museum, there was no queue. I have not made it to see everything in 4 hours and I will definitely come back 🥰

An absolutely not to be missed museum. Architecturally a very significant building. The traveling exhibit we saw on the history of Paris was exceptional. The museum has a great permanent collection.

The museum is one of Europe’s leading museums for modern art and design. Founded in 1866 and renamed in 2019, it is housed in a striking building designed by H.P. Berlage and completed in 1935. Its collection of more than 165,000 works spans painting, decorative arts, fashion, music, prints, ceramics, and silver. The museum is especially famous for holding the world’s largest collection of Piet Mondrian’s works.

World class art museum that’s about 200k square feet. Incredible dessert exhibition while we were there. World’s largest Mondrian collection. Well worth a visit

Museum VoorlinMuseum Voorlinden is a beautiful and well-curated modern art museum, worth visiting if you are in the area. The staff is friendly and helpful, which made the experience smooth and pleasant. The artworks are all special in their own way, and each room offers something different. A standout for us was the marshmallow house — playful and unexpected, it really stood out as a highlight. There are a few practical things to note. You are not allowed to take even a water bottle inside, so plan accordingly. Also, the toilets are located outside the main building, which means you have to walk a bit to reach them. Overall, a unique and engaging museum experience. We give it 4 out of 5 stars. den

The pool is very famous yes, but if u go there just for that I would say it’s not worth it. But there are so much more to see. The environment surrounded is just so good to be true. Highly recommended even if just for the view outside. And the museum inside itself must be one of the most beautiful museum I have ever seen.

It's a very enjoyable place. Kids can enjoy it too. But we loved the cafe right next to it. The forest where the museum is located was wonderful. The landscaping was beautiful. You can also take a walk around the area.

I admit the artworks worth a visit however I have to be honest the experience was not good for a 22 euro. a) In that "sweet Memories"... everyone was asked to take off shoes, understandable though still a bit strange. Maybe I got bad luck in that group someone had unbearable stench filled the whole small candy room. At least for me that was zero sweet but a completely disgusting memories. b) It's normal and common sense not to touch the artwork but arguable the distance. I was struggling from the warning: "keep the distance"... I don't see it's normal for a museum to forbid visitors to look closely for details. Meanwhile to mention there is no clear sign at least for the "large-mini copied chairs". As a well known museum, you are not doing properly in leveraging the communication towards ur visitors between: "don't touch", "keep distance" and "look closely". If u believe signs break the artworks and atmosphere, then u should do it professionally in a different way. Good luck with your visit and hope all of u will have a Sweet Memories there... 😂 For me the disgusting memories + a strange "keep distance" warning made a very unpleasant experience for only 2 stars.

pretty and enjoyable museum with a lot of modern art installation! sometimes they also have live art performance, it is very interesting to watch!

We had an amazing experience at Museum Voorlinden. The staff were quick to help, the gift shop had high quality and actually unique pieces, the various pieces on exhibition were carefully curated up build a 360 experience in you by the time you were finished. My family and I also had the honour of visiting the private book collection and not yet shown pieces, so that was a cherry on top! Parking is spacious, the bathroom facilities are enough, there's two different restaurant/cafes on the grounds plus a mobile coffee cart so lots of options for food if necessary. The grounds it sits on, is also beautiful sp lots of people took walks around before leaving.

Museum Voorlinden is a beautiful estate with a contemporary art gallery. Their permanent collection is excellent and the seasonal collections are usually also very good. Besides the museum the estate gardens are also worth a visit and they are completely free of charge!

Great view and it feels like a little adventure - when you are up and surrounded by the sea. Ride is approx. for 13-14 minutes. Tickets can be bought on the spot, there is a queue but the wait is not long.

Fabulous bird view. Stunning as the sky was clear blue. Magical. Also. Have a stroll on the boulevard and treat yourself to a lovely dinner on the “strip”. Especially when the evening start and lights illuminate the beautiful beach.

We've done similar attractions that were nicer like the one in Montreal and The Eye in London. Felt more professional. This felt a bit like a carnival ride. Nice enough, love that the pods are air conditioned but they could use a cleaning. Othe people may enjoy this event more than we did. Wasn't awful, wast great. The surrounding area is also a bit jersey shore to me. Just not our thing.

We visited The Pier SkyView and it was such a special experience. The views over the sea and beach were absolutely stunning, and the cozy cabins made the ride extra comfortable. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable moment by the sea!

Opened in 2016, this is Europe’s first Ferris wheel built over the sea, rising about eight meters above the North Sea. With a height of around 45 meters, it offers sweeping views of the coastline and the city skyline. A ride lasts between 12 and 20 minutes, making it a perfect way to take in the scenery. Sunset is an especially romantic time to enjoy the experience.

Best beach and best view from De Pier. Never ever to miss out on this if you are in Den Haag. Best place to chill for music lovers

We enjoyed this, the view was great from the top, I think it was a bit too expensive at €11 per person and there was 4 of us, however we did go round a good few times.

Sporting complex with nice skating rink with 400M oval and smaller rink in the centre. Not too busy most of the times and flexible opening hours during the evening. Reasonable pricing. Not very cosy ambiance though.

Indoor skiing and snowboarding, the elevator is almost always incredibly full and waiting to get to the top including the lane is around 5-10 minutes, going down is 25 seconds. Because of the amount of people en kids, the ramps are regularly closed which makes the experience less fun. If you are a beginner its a perfect place to start skiing or snowboarding, you get the help you need, but as soon as you start to ger advanced this place can become a headache.

Facility ratings are excluded from this review. Five stars were given for snowboarding lessons with Snowboard Instructor - Jan. From the very first moment, I felt at ease due to his friendly and patient approach. His passion for snowboarding was infectious, and he managed to teach me the correct body posture while snowboarding, regular/switch turns, basic carving technique, snowboarding straight down the hill in icy conditions, 180 Backside/Frontside, shifties, gaining speed, and feeling confident about it, hitting jumps on a kicker with the right body position (which is, by the way, really intimidating for a beginner), ollies/nollies, 50/50 grinds. This is all he taught me in 1.5 weeks of training, which is incredible for a beginner! Additionally, he offered advice on the most suitable gear for me, as it is really difficult to do it on your own - there are so many different brands and snowboards on the market! I needed an instructor who would push me mentally to my limits and motivate me when I felt like I couldn't go any further without injuring myself. I am so happy that he could see that in me and adjust his teaching strategy based on my level of perception. Today I can definitely say that I am an advanced snowboarder now, thanks to Jan for his individually tailored approach and the skills he taught me in such a short time!

Update:We had so much fun skating last time that we decided to try again so we went Sunday morning around 10.00. Bad idea as it was super crowded which totally ruined t he experience! Be sure to check the expected attendance before you go... We went there for an active birthday meaning activities and some food. Though I cannot recommend the latter as the kids had a present menu exclusively comprised of fried foods topped up with ... fries, skating was a lot of fun and so was the karting experience.

The youth climbing course is definitely worth taking. That is a 4 weeks course with a certificate at the end (if the kids tick all the boxes that they need). The parents can wait in the cafe/waiting area while the kids are climbing. That is a nice open area with a view on the climbing walls. The chairs could use a make over as they are a bit uncomfortable, but overall a nice place to be.

An amazing spot to go skiing and snowboarding, even if it’s your first time There is literally everything you need, you just have to rent it. + the staff was super duper nice and helpful

Great atmosphere, friendly staff and good climbing. The routesetting is great, the routes are not too easy and quite challenging. Some moves are very creative and nothing felt too forced. The height is a bit more then I'm used too but routes didn't felt drawn out of rushed. The food was good, and so was the coffee. I would have stayed longer if I could.

I really enjoyed visiting the Grote Kerk, even though I couldn’t go inside. The gothic architecture and the tower are stunning. The church has such a strong presence in the heart of The Hague — perfect for photography and soaking up the historic atmosphere

Noteworthy and beautiful protestant church! We went on a private group tour and it did not dissapoint! The insode workings is amazing as well as the mechanisms that controls the bells! Right at the top you get amazing views of The Hague with a 360 degree view! Getting tickets im advance is advisable.

We visited Grote Kerk on a whim and we're glad we did. No wait times and no issues getting tickets. The church was interesting to see. It was obvious there was a large event the day before as the floor was wet and sticky and there were empty plastic cups. The tower tour was great! Our guide, Rudolph, was very knowledgable and kind. Be ready to walk up (and back down!) 300 narrow steps! Very cool views once you get to the top.

Nice church, very empty inside

A culturally and historically beautiful venue to attend the Expat trade show last weekend. Very high ceilings and plenty of open spaces that facilitated the booths aswell as seminars. A well organized and timely information to help expats gain valuable insights. I was particularly intrigued by a seminar on tenants rights against landlords in Netherlands. Well worth the Saturday to walk around and meet various service providers - extend networks under one roof

We climbed the church tower with two kids (5 &7) and enjoyed it a lot! It is a separate tour, with 15 spots only. It runs twice a day - book in advance, the ticket includes an excursion. Our guide Theo was very charismatic, wr have learnt a lot about tower history and a weird metal roof it once had (see bw pic):) Great panoram of the Hague! Next year (2024) church celebrates its 600 birthday 🎂 do not miss it!

Was here for the whiskey festival and we had a grand old time. Gorgeous and well kept interior, very accessible and surprisingly warm for such a large building on a cold and dreary day in late fall. Definitely worth a visit with or without whiskey.

Easy to get to from Centraal. Had the impression that the museum is targeted at toddlers and smaller kids but decided to visit anyway. The basement is targeted at older kids with many interactive activities that earn them add ons to the character they build. They are decent difficulty levels and there is a little waiting for other kids but nothing inconvenient. Loads of writings and quotes as they work through the various activities. Its a decent amount of activity and reading. We did two hours and were not fully done. Kids got hungry and cafe had run out of sandwiches so we left. This was around 2.45pm. This was a little disappointing. The staff at the cafe are lovely though. You get a card on your way out as a souvenir. There is a gift shop mostly in dutch.

My 11 month old and newly 5 year old had a great time playing together. It’s so nice to find somewhere they can both enjoy! Especially that there are no shoes allowed on the younger children’s floor, so it is ok for little ones to crawl around. It was clean and had plenty of toilets and easily accessible with a stroller.

The Kinderboekenmuseum in Den Haag is a calm, welcoming spot where children can really lose themselves in stories. It’s designed with little ones in mind — cozy reading corners, a storytelling nook, and a range of hands-on, tactile exhibits that invite playful exploration without overwhelming. The layout makes it easy for parents to keep an eye on kids, and the staff are warm and attentive, creating a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere ideal for a slow morning or gentle afternoon outing. They also offer storytelling sessions and workshops that add extra charm. In addition to the book-focused areas, the museum has a dedicated arts-and-crafts room for creative projects and a cafeteria where families can take a break and enjoy a snack or drink. Overall, it’s a soothing, imaginative place that encourages curiosity, reading, and creative play for toddlers through early elementary ages.

It was a very nice experience with kids. Specially their baby section is amazing

We absolutely love the museum. Perfect for our little ones. However the cafe has terrible hygiëne. Tables and floor are not being cleaned while you can see many staffs doing nothing behind the counter. We also saw two mouses running around.... while many customers already saw it, I didn't see any action taken from the staff.....

Experience was very lovely. Took us, a family with a 6 and 8 year old about 4 hours to do everything. The activities were engaging, the play areas were fun and the arts and crafts room was awesome

It is a Really lovely place also for the little ones. However entry is quite expensive considering that each parent has to pay full price. And low score simply on the account that there were 3 mice roaming around in the cafe. Not sanitary at all especially in a place for children

A beautiful large park with both dunes and forestry, you can find shade and nice walking paths but at the same time the sun and sand if that's what you like. The farm and restaurant is okay and there are facilities for kids which is great. All in all a nice park.

Very nice stop within the dunes of Scheveningen. Nice food. Nice atmosphere.

The nature is beautiful, the weather is great, and it’s truly perfect for hiking.

Beautiful park for biking and hiking. Some patient and sneaky move you can spot many gorgeous animals and flowers. Twisted tress make a amazing landscape...😲😲

A beautiful fairytale dune, clear waters and sandy hills all the way to the sea. There is a restaurant where you can eat a pancake and drink a hot beverage as well, delicious and in winter a gentle fire is burning indoors

Very beautiful place, kids' playground is there as well as ponies. Even grown-ups remembered how wired and fun childhood could be ) You can see a variety of natural landscapes from forest to dunes, seaside and lakes, sandy pathes and meadows. But please, be aware of ticks! We've got one. View your clothes, body and shoes before go to sleep after the fruitful day at the park.

Beautiful scenery of forest, dunes and beach. Great for biking and walking. Dogs have to be on leash at all times. Pancake house next to parking

The Royal Delft museum is a really nice place for a short day-time program if you're visiting Delft. There is an exhibition from the techniques used in the process to modern art pieces. The building has a beautiful garden in the middle, which was unfortunately closed. We spent about an hour in the museum. They also have a sizable gift shop, where you can place orders or buy already-made pieces. They currently sell really beautiful christmas ornaments for 20-25€.

Visited *Royal Delft* as part of a tour group, and it was an incredible experience! The demo showcasing their iconic hand-painted ceramic work was absolutely awesome—mind-boggling to see the skill and precision that goes into each piece. The artistry behind their famous blue-and-white Delftware is truly remarkable. The tour was engaging, and the museum beautifully highlights the history and craftsmanship. A must-visit for anyone near Delft! Highly recommend!

The museum and factory tour really gives you a sense of how much skill and craftsmanship goes into everything they make and gives you a sense for the scale of their history. Well with spending an hour or two doing this and purchasing gifts and souviniers. Dress in layers it's actually not that warm but warm enough that you will not be happy in a sweater!

If you’re into pottery, tableware, or anything to do with fine china, Royal Delft is an absolute must! The museum has such a rich and fascinating history, and it’s the perfect size to explore without feeling like you’re in a marathon. You’ll learn all about how their iconic Delft pottery is made, and it’s honestly so cool to see it all come to life. Before visiting, I bought both the museum ticket and their high tea package in advance on their website — super easy and totally worth it. The bonus? On our way there (we took the tram from Den Haag), we accidentally stumbled upon the actual spot that inspired Vermeer’s “View of Delft.” There’s even a replica of the painting right there so you can compare it to the real view Vermeer saw back in the day. How amazing is that?? Such a serendipidous find that made our Delft experience even better. 💙 By the time we got to the museum, we were—surprise, surprise—already hungry 😂. We showed up way too early for our high tea reservation, but the staff was so kind and told us to come back in 15 minutes while they set up a table for us. Perfect excuse to “tour” the gift shop! And wow, that gift shop is dangerous for anyone with limited luggage space. They have everything — vases, Christmas ornaments, gorgeous tableware, adorable Miffy collections, and all sorts of Delft blue goodies. I wanted to buy everything. But alas, since this was near the end of our trip (and I still had a week in Amsterdam to go), I had to restrain myself. Next time, though? I’m coming back for the tulip vases. Sooooo pretty. And the Miffy figurines. And the Dutch houses. Ugh, the list goes on! Once I finished my ooh-ing and aah-ing, we headed back to the café for high tea, and our table was ready. The staff was so lovely — they explained every sweet and savory treat on our tiered tray, and the tea selection was solid. The food itself? About a 3 out of 5 if we’re grading just on taste. It’s not like a fancy hotel afternoon tea, but it was perfectly nice. Plus, the atmosphere makes up for it — there’s a beautiful garden where you can sit outside, or cozy indoor seating with big windows looking out. We chose inside (it was too chilly for us desert people ❄️). After tea, we did our self-guided tour through the museum and factory area, where you can actually watch artisans painting and crafting pottery by hand. It’s mesmerizing! I had no idea that Delftware originally took major inspiration from Chinese porcelain — especially the classic blue-and-white style. They even show side-by-side examples of early Dutch copies and the original Chinese pieces, and you can really see how the Dutch designs evolved over time into something uniquely their own. All in all, Royal Delft is 100% worth visiting. The museum is fascinating, the staff is warm and welcoming, and the café is a lovely spot to rest your feet (high tea optional, but fun if you have time). Prices were pretty reasonable too — high tea was €63 (about $73 USD) for two people, and museum tickets were €34 (around $40 USD) for two. Highly recommend — and don’t forget to save some luggage space for those Delft souvenirs! 💙

came here as part of our bus tour, we had a really friendly guide, very informative. because of our bus free time we didn’t get to see everything but what we did see was amazing, the shop was also good and did have some more affordable items such as magnets, there is also a cafe which again we unfortunately didn’t get to go in but it looked lovely, overall the place was somewhat busy and had a nice atmosphere, if we ever came to the area again we would make a longer visit.

“The Royal Delft Museum is beautiful, with a fascinating history behind the famous Delft Blue. The visit is very enriching and the pieces are true works of art. However, both the entrance fee and the gift shop are quite expensive. Still, I recommend it as a unique experience to discover this Dutch icon.

This, for me, has been the best museum experience during my trip. It's not an art museum per se, but learning about the history of porcelain (or rather faience), seeing the process, and walking through the factory and experiencing the painting phase live - it was an emotional journey. Lovely explanations of the Delft Blue ceramic making process, with plenty of examples and a walk through the factory itself. The history of the process: rich and ever-growing, always improving. I'm curious how would a similar museum feel in China or other Asian places, which have been the precursors of European ceramic traditions. All in all, if you love ceramics, make sure you visit!

Definitely a highlight in my life - one of those things I am glad I did. Vermeer is definitely the master painter of light and I was very impressed. The fact that the paintings are not original does not detract anything from the marvel thereof. I found the fact that one can get a glimpse of all of his works at once, really impressive and insightful. Definitely a must-visit stop whenever you are in Delft.

We visited on a week day and were able to buy tickets at the museum. Cute little museum that shows copies of all of Vermeer's paintings and highlighting his techniques in mastering light and symbolism. I would say you could see everything in 2 hours

Very interesting Center, a lot of information on how Vermeer painted and practical explanations on his use of light. The audio guide is for free and available in many languages. They have real size reproductions of all known paintings from Vermeer, which allows you to calmly examine them and learn more about the details and the technique he used. Totally recommended if you’re visiting Delft!

It's a pity that none of the original paintings are exhibited here. I was surprised to learn how many are in the possession of museums around the world — and it's regrettable that so few remain in the Netherlands. That said, the exhibition offers a solid overview of the artist's work. Even more impressive is the analysis of his technique, which is both insightful and educational. I would especially recommend this place to art students, as it provides a valuable perspective on his creative paint process, i. e. primarily analysis of light effects. The museum shop, however, was a bit of a letdown — quite pricey, with not much of real interest on offer.

Definitely worth stopping by when you are in Delft. Entrance is free and they have an amazing shop with everything Vermeer. 3 stories with exhibitions of all his works (copies) with a little bit of history of Delft.

I was disappointed by the exhibit on the upper floor. It was a collection of A.I. slop done by René van den Berg. This "art" was badly done and sold for a high price, around 300-400€ (I can say from personal experience that each piece took 10 minutes of his time to complete). I am disappointed that an art museum would promote this low effort fad that goes against everything Vermer represents.

Helpful staff, excellent audio guide. Delft is trying to make the most of its Vermeer connection, which is difficult as his house has been knocked down and none of his paintings remain in the town. This is a really good exhibition to show his life in Delft and the subjects and techniques of his paintings

Very informative museum with a ton of masterpieces from the 17th century. They were telling the story of life and death of William the silent the father of dutch nation and great ancestor of the current king. I really liked the complex personality and liberal nature of his actions. The museum has perfectly utilized all mediums available to make a great experience with very detailed explanations on pieces of propaganda and really brilliantly set the context for the story. Do recommend totally worth it 👌.

Was great experience Will come back

The museum Prinsenhof is a fun visit mainly for the imprints the events here have left on Dutch History. Its interesting to see a part of history come to life on the famous stairs. The exposition on the uprising are interesting with some beautiful paintings, but not very expansive. Many more stories could be told if the museum wanted. Especially if they did away with the completely random exhibition on some artist the name of whom I have already forgotten.

Wear comfortable shoes! Lots of walking & perfect photos. We loved it. It was packed on a Saturday. I'm not sure if it's much better on a weekday. Not to be missed.

I had a wonderful experience at the Prinsenhof Museum in Delft. What really impressed me was the flow of the exhibits. The museum takes you through the life of William of Orange, also known as William the Silent, in chronological order. I didn't know much about him before, but this museum brought his story and its impact on Dutch history to life. Learning about William's children and the broader context of the Spanish and Netherlands war was truly fascinating. The museum itself is a delight. It's very interactive, which kept me engaged the whole time – and I confess, I have a bit of a short attention span! The beautiful artwork displayed throughout the exhibits added another layer to the experience. One exhibit that particularly surprised me was the one dedicated to Delft Blue pottery. I never knew about the history of these iconic blue vases and their connection to the Netherlands. It was fascinating to learn about their production and significance. Overall, I highly recommend the Prinsenhof Museum to anyone interested in Dutch history, particularly the life of William of Orange and the Spanish and Netherlands war. The museum is well-organized, informative, and engaging, making it a great experience for all.

Great place to learn about the local history in a very vivid way that makes you travel back in time, but also to admire, apart from the wonderful paintings, a few very good pieces of the characteristic blue and white pottery in the place their art was born. There is also the option you create your own digital pottery and get it with you in your email. I would totally recommend it if you are visit Delft.

Perfect place to learn more about William the Orange/ the Silent and famous painter Vermeer. Finding the entrance of the Museum is a bit tricky as it has almost like a side entrance. Signs are everywhere, so you will not get lost. Airy room once you get in. You will find your way in and greeted by the staff who is handling the audio guide. Coffee shop is available in the premises. Boutique is at site. The entire building is big, so follow the map with matching # on each door of the room, so you won’t miss any of the exhibition. Mind your head on the doorway. Washrooms are available in between the visit. I love how they present the audio against the art, so as the story telling. It was really a lovely visit.

Takes max to max 10 mins to explore this park. Centrally located in amazing Landgoed Clingendael. Park is small and cute, very colourful, and nice to taking pictures, instragramable location 😀 Free to visit, and very well maintained! It's next to a café, can't do picnic inside this garden, but outside there is lot of nice green grass patches... This park might not be suitable for people with mobility issues.

Was here in the end of October. Absolutely loved it. After a rainy but a nice walk in the park I arrived in the Japanise Garden. It's a little garden that is Japanese themed. I explored it in about 20 minutes, but it was lovely. I believe that in warmer weather this place is even more appealing. If you like parks, gardens and nature I recommend you check this place out. By the way the entrance is completely free.

A small garden, really small, set in a beautiful environment. I visited in October, and it was lovely: large variety of trees and plants, fallen leaves, mushrooms, and I even spotted a squirrel (I hadn’t seen one in ages, everyone was surprised!). Definitely worth a visit.

Went at around 530pm-6pm and was not crowded. Nice vibe and surrounded by relaxing park. Hard to get to the place though if you don’t have a car. Took 10mins to explore. Probably good to visit for photoshoots.

Good and well kept garden with a varierty of Japanese flora. It seemed a bit small for my taste, but you could easily spend some hours there. There is a small place to sit and relax and a few beautiful bridges. They keep adding things to the garden.

Beautiful place even though it’s kinda small. Sadly place, where you are supposed to clean hands in usual temples, was unreachable and probably nobody used it here. If you want nobody on your photos, better arrive early.

Originally we expected this place to be much bigger HOWEVER it is perfectly beautiful and offers beautiful flowers to admire and also to have some photos taken on beautiful bridges. It does not seem to get too crowded which is surprising as I considered this spot to be very popular. And entrance is free!

I visited the Haags Historisch Museum on a Sunday afternoon, expecting a quiet and intimate experience. While the museum's location near the Binnenhof and its compact size were definite pluses, the staff's friendliness fell short of my expectations. However, the exhibition ‘Haagse Harry by Marnix Rueb', was wonderful, with a nice art setup that engaged kids. Overall, a nice, small museum with a rich history of The Hague, but room for improvement in terms of staff hospitality.

Great place to see if you are interested in learning more about Den Haag and it's rich history. There was no audio guide and the further you go there are less english interactive features and descriptions. This museum has a really great display of the Dutch peoples ability to criticality reflects on the past and present and future implications of taboo topics.

We visited the Hague's Historic Museum in a cold, gray, rainy day. I was actually not expecting anything from this place. I was wrong. Of course, it is not the Hermitage or Van Gogh Museum but it is not boring and gives you an idea of The Hague history. An idea. But if you are with children or adolescent it is perfect. The building where you find the Museum it is nice and interesting to visit. Well, go for it

Informative permanent exhibition, so much about the history of den Haag and Netherlands. Was a pretty nice visit. Also the current exhibition on hairs was good.

There are many interesting and unique objects and paintings, but the highlight, in my humble opinion, are the doll houses. I wasn't able to see all the galleries, because some rooms were under construction, but I liked everything I Saw.

I went to the specific Johan van Oldenbarnevelt exposition that is to see till april 2019. It is excellent! It has interesting facts of a very specific person that played a key role in the formation of the Netherlands. If you go there to learn the history of the governing capital of the Netherlands, definitely go there. It isn't a large museum and 10 euros is a decent price, but its history definitely is a learning experience.

A very good museum with amazing collection and exhibitions. You need to reserve 2 hours minimum for it. And take kids with you - they will find a lot of fun and entertaining things there.

A hall overflowing with paintings, both mesmerising and somewhat overwhelming. The amount of artworks crammed together makes it difficult to concentrate one’s attention on a single piece. The positive thing is that there is a booklet describing each painting which helps the admirers navigate through the lot.

A terrific small gallery adjacent to the prison gate museum. It has only one hall so you can either glance into the paintings in less than half an hour, or you can dive deep into the eyes and faces and small details of whatever is in the splendid paintings for more than two hours. Must see especially if you are in the area.

This can be easy to miss as it's a couple of blocks from the Mauritshuis, but don't overlook it. There are lots of great Dutch paintings, however they're displayed in the old style, hung in multiple layers up to the ceiling. This plus the poor lighting mean that you will find it difficult to appreciate lots of the works, but the gallery is still worth visiting for the fine works on display.

A nice historic collection of portraits, genre paintings and landscapes. The walls are covered in paintings, but the scope of the gallery is the entire point.

Collection of Prince William. Just one floor. Also it's entry fee is included with Mauritshuis ticket.

We had free tickets because we had already gotten the mauritshuis ones, so that was nice! I was expecting something more, but it was great anyway

In a renewed building, the Gallery shows masterpieces. It’s a magnificent place.

Fab place to go! We booked a tour around the sculptures and will go back on a couple of weeks to see the roses bloom! We also had a lovely lunch at Greens

It's beautiful for BBQ, Children play and hanging out for families and friends. Nice public park. It also has a coffee place and roadside ice cream stand.

Beautiful park for bbqs and picnics. It's great for kids but not for dogs.

What's not to love about a park?! The rose garden is lovely, the playground is playful and there's a large grassy area for all your park-related activities. The Ginkgo trees on the eastern edge are particularly lovely in the autumn.

I just love this park. My mother took me there when I was a child, and it's still a pleasure to visit this meticulously maintained English style landscape garden. One can walk on the grass, sit on the benches, look into the ponds and waterways for fishes and frogs, and admire the judiciously placed sculptures. Last but not least, this time of the year, the many different varieties of roses are a treat for the eyes and the nose.

There for Parade. Loved it. Beautiful park, brilliant festival. Saw some wonderful shows in this wonderful setting.

Very beautifull space of nature with a variety of exclusive roses during a certain period of the year🌹🌹🌹

The TU Delft botanical garden is something different from what I’m used to, it’s not there to show the most exotic plants and be the most beautiful, but instead, as it’s a technical university, it’s meant to share the different plants and their use in different technologies which is very interesting! It’s a nice stroll, not very big, with some genuinely nice places to sit and be calm, I wish it was a bit more informative in an easy way to learn.

Walking through the Hortus Botanicus Delft felt like stepping into a living museum of plants. I wandered among themed sections—from medicinal herbs to exotic species—each carefully curated to reflect centuries of botanical study. Beyond its educational value, the garden is also a peaceful retreat, perfect for slow exploration and quiet reflection. My visit left me inspired by how thoughtfully the garden balances research, conservation, and public enjoyment.

If you lower your expectations this could be a pretty cool place. I suggest bringing a picnic and finding some shade or using the gazebo to stretch your time there. We enjoyed the exhibit about the refugee housing and seeing the prototypes.

Delft Botanical Garden was founded about 100 years ago. Each plant in it has a name plate in Dutch and Latin. This will help you find it if you want to plant it in your home garden or balcony. All the trees, bushes and flowers are well-kept. There is a greenhouse for tropical plants, including insectivorous ones, as well as a separate greenhouse for cacti. The territory of the Delft Botanical Garden is small. You will take your time to explore it in an hour and a half. Now inside, there is also a temporary exhibition on how the plants were used to produce dyes and cloth. Detailed explanations in English and Dutch. There is a coffee point on the territory of the garden. And near the entrance to the garden there is a cash desk and a shop where you can buy themed souvenirs and even flowers. Another interesting corner is the apothecary "garden". The information plates show how these plants were used in medicine in the Middle Ages. Two metasequoias grow nearby. Definitely worth a visit.

Lovely place to spend some relaxing time. Entrance fee is 6 euros for adults. There is a little cafe but you can take your own food and have a picnic. Lots of benches to sit.

The garden is marvelous, even in mid-October, very interesting, with a wide variety of plants, sculptures, and educational exhibits.

A beautiful garden with interesting, varied plants with mixed pottery art dotted around the area. It is decently maintained and you get a map with all the different plant species named. The staff are very friendly and there are options for refreshments.

I always order supplies for my peach-faced lovebird from their webshop, but I decided to visit the place in-person! Awesome, really enjoyed being able to see a lot of bird species. Staff is very friendly and more than happy to help you. The animals are well taken care of, which is pleasant. They sell supplies for a lot of possible pets :)! I really liked seeing flamingoes and parrots here.

Nice place with some really nice cool stuff for pets. At the top Floor you also have a nice cafe-restaurant, where you can enjoy some drinks and food.

Visiting this pet store is almost like going to the zoo. When I first saw the name of this place I assumed it was an amusement park and to be frank the thrill is almost the same - what an amazing setup they have! I don’t know much about the subject but I can only assume that Avonturia sets the bar high for pet shops around the world (certainly in Europe). Although we didn’t buy any pets on our visit we had fun just observing the wide variety of animals (not all for sale). The staff seemed friendly and eager to assist. I can’t comment on the canteen food as we didn’t eat there.

It is a very nice shop and center for the kids and your fur friends. Dull shopping for the stinky dog/cat food or treat can be made double fun 🙃 To see lots of fishes, spiders, turtles (Sea and earth) flamingoes, iguanas… To go on a quest for kids, to search for the gold. Nice place to have a tosti for lunch, in my opinion I would add more to the menu as to attract more people to visit cafeteria, more fresh, green food. 🤍

The place is lovely, it’s not your common pet shop, they have almost a mini zoo inside 🩷 cute bunnies, guinea pigs, rats and cool reptiles and even spiders! They also have EVERYTHING for any pet. Loved it 🩷 The cafe inside is great too, desserts are specially nice 😁

Beautiful, child-friendly and uniquely themed pet-shop. Loads of animals and birds on display as well. We enjoyed the restaurant too. A real gem.

More than just a pet store, it's an experience!!

We entered the restaurant with children, very hungry. We sat down, but no waiters approached us. I went to ask where to get a menu, and they just pointed to where it was without any explanation. We spent about 10 minutes there, staying hungry the whole time. I started looking at the menu and chose pancakes, but then I noticed a small note saying that orders are only taken until 5 PM. I checked the time – it was exactly 17:00. I went to the bar, but they said they were no longer accepting orders. Nowhere at the entrance was it mentioned that after 5 PM they stop taking orders, and the staff didn’t inform us either. When I asked for the menu, they could have at least warned us. We wasted about 10 minutes of our time, stayed hungry, and experienced very poor service. The staff clearly did not fulfill their responsibilities. Very disappointing experience.

I made a reservation with a window table days before. I got confirmation. When I arrived a very unfriendly rude unprofessional waitress said yeah just go find a seat. None of the tables by the window were free. The seats were broken, I had to fix myself and the smell in that restaurant was like a fresh lemon smell from the toilets. The toilet doors were broken as well and they left the toilet door open many times….no wonder the smell. But also good news. At least one waitress was very nice and the food was delicious. Hope the Manager reads this post and talks to the tanned waitress with the dark shoulder long hair and fixes the smell in the restaurant.

It wasn’t outright bad. But between staff (mostly unhappy-looking young girls) that was super busy chit chatting and hiding behind the counter with their backs towards guests and cold, bland burger it was a visit to forget. Did I mention that young girls are REALLY good at letting “dear paying guests” know that they are so annoying and needy? Ok, I did now. Ah, the sea view? Passable at best. There’s very little of the interesting beach view on one side and a lot of open sea view, that is kinda everywhere anyway, duh.

Great view. Good food. Small play area for kids. Needs more attention to service.

Nice place to go for lunch or dinner or just a drink! We went for my mother's birthday with some family. We had pancakes, it was very nice. The view is great! And the location is fun. It's quite cheap. I can definitely recommend going here.

Gluten-free pancakes! But ask which ones. They were very thick, like half a centimeter. I don't know this that's a typical Dutch pancake or not. Seemed a bit much to me but what do I know. My partner and I each ordered one and agreed we could have ordered one to share as a light meal. The view is great. Even on a cold and miserable day. There were still crazies out there kite surfing.

Awesome view on the sea and really cool atmosphere. It was also well decorated for Christmas. The drinks were quite expensive though.

Creepy old building with bugs and spiders.

Beautiful old city hall!

Friendly! Classy! Good wedding vibes

Traditional place for a wedding 💒 it will leave you an unforgettable experience

Very nice looking building that screams history!

The front part, original part of the building is fantastic.

Gorgeous building.

definitely an exceptional park to walk through. it's super spacious, and looks beautiful throughout any season. it's a great place for dogs, as there is a massive dog park that you can take your pet anytime! there's lots paths and bridges which can accompany some great photos! takeaway coffee is available, which is super fitting for colder weather.

Beautiful place, lot of canals, small wooden bridges, worth to visit all seasons of the year.

Very nice restaurant located in the middle of a very old and green city park. The restaurant has a very big tarras in front. But in the back there is another hidden Coffee House with some nice outdoor tables. They are also organising the private party with the private bar and a barbecue.

Very fine place for every age. Unique combination of trees and plants.

Great surroundings especially during sunny weather. Good food. Beautiful place. ♥️

Beautiful park. A bit crowded on the weekends.

Wonderful place to walk, ride or roller blade.

*Fun for kids with building and other activities.* Unfortunately, there were hardly any LEGO figures at the building stations (likely taken home by visitors). There were also a few interactive models that are supposed to move when you press a button — but they didn’t work. Considering the very high entrance price (€23 from age 2) you’d expect things to function properly and the toilets to be clean. You can get tickets via AH supermarket. Second ticket free.

We visited out of season, which meant plenty of access to all the exhibits and play areas. The kids really enjoyed themselves, and we found that about 2.5 hours was the right amount of time for our visit. It’s definitely best suited for younger children (under 10), but even if your kids are a bit older and don’t mind the younger theme, there’s still fun to be had. Honestly, I can’t think of anything negative to say as it was exactly what we expected, and we weren’t disappointed.

Disclosure, I got my tickets half price! I went there with my nephew of 7 years old. The first thing stated at Legoland is that at busy days there is a 2 hour limit visit. If you pay full price, you need to consider this. The whole facility is underground so you take an elevator down. When we left, the elevator was broken. So people with stollers and mobility impairment had to wait till it was fixed. There was a stairs to take to exit. So Legoland is about building and you have tables of different themes like Ninjago and Dubro. Yes , it is fun to build but there mostly bricks to use. For the car race you need wheels and those bricks with holes in it... Those were rare, so you had to wait till the kids weren't interested in their creations to make your own. Even my nephew noticed at the Ninjago station that he couldn't make figurines or robots. I understand that those pieces are worth alot and there can be a tendency of stealing them as there is no oversight in putting them in pockets but if you can only make brick houses, it doesn't really grab the attention. My nephew did like the Ninjago laser game. That was the most fun he had besides the car making (when he had the wheel pieces) and the minimal 4d movie experience. You have a workshop on Lego building, Lego built Scheveningen, a cafe and a cart ride with magic wands to shoot at projectors. The cart ride is for kids above 130 cm. So young kids can't even enjoy it. Because my Nephew liked the Laser Game the most, I won't be coming back as I think a facility like Monkey Town is more interesting for him.

It is a great place for kids. All ages, but mainly the little ones. Starting at 3 up until 12? Depending on your daughter or son interest in Legos 😊

We loved it with our 4,5 year old son! Conveniently situated near the parking right on the beach! We spent there hours playing and building with lego, went to the lego cinema and watched a 4d LEGO movie, our son was impressed, as it was his first time! Staff is super friendly and nice! There is a lego train and great masterclasses for children and parents. It was great fun for all our family. We finished our day on the sunny pier right next to the LEGO land! Very happy!

Good spot for a couple of hours, lots to do for a 6 year old. The 4D cinema was fun but could do with some subtitles for English customers.

Legoland at Schevinegan Beach is a great proposition for young children, especially in the age group of 4 to 10. The staff is courteous for the most part and take care of your experience. Some of the older staff members can be curt, but you just gotta learn to work around them. Even though English is not the primary language, you could always ask for instructions in English. (like in the Lego workshop.). The 4D movie also is a great experience for young ones. I only wish they would give you a memento of your visit! Something to remember Legoland. However, that is not the case over here as everything comes with the price tag. Barring that it is a great experience.

Great park, with an amazing playground and they are replacing the paths. Good for a walk / run and with coffee stands around the park a good easy place to take the kids

A very nice park for a walk, and perfect for dog owners. There’s a designated dog area where dogs can be unleashed — it’s open and not fenced, but safely isolated from the main paths. They also have a water source for dogs nearby, which is a thoughtful touch.

Loved it, how cool is it to have a beach AND a forest in one city?

one of most wonderful gardens and parks in the Netherlands. Good to get calm and listen to yourself. an amazing place for sunny days.

Wonderful little forest the city. Great for walks.

Very beautiful park in the middle of Den Haag. The fall colours in the park are very beautiful! The park lacks clear places to park bikes.

Nice place with a good view..there are lot of thing you can find here..there is a souvenirr shop that I notice..The Sealife seems interesting together with some sort of lego combined with it..it was nice during the summer..lots of restaurant and people are having fun with families and friends..

Great acoustics in the concert hall. Pleasurable seating plan. Upon entry of the complex, the theatre/concert hall experience only starts after going up as the ground floor entrances and corridor lacks grandeur

An ultra modern concert hall very close to Den Haag Centraal. Great facilities (locker, café etc) and one of the best acoustics you can find in any concert halls. It's fairly new but has attracted major international musicians (classic or otherwise)

Great place for catching a show. Wheel chair acceas struck me as a bit weak for a building that was built post 2020. Perhaps I missed it somehow, but there were a lot of stairs...

Amare fabulous venue, growing more and more into itself. NDT, concergebouw, also becoming a great focal point for free activities dance, music etc..

One of my close friends fell down your stairs last week. Not the first time this happened , is it? Would you like to see pictures from the hospital? What is your action? Also towards her?

I attended the Evgeny Kissin piano recital yesterday, the performance itself was incredible, no complaints there. However, my experience at the venue was ruined by the behaviour of a fellow audience member and the staff’s response. I briefly checked my phone (low brightness, sound off) to reply to a message. The elderly woman next to me physically pushed my phone away, not once, but twice. During the intermission, she began shouting at me, calling me “not normal” and claiming I distracted her, despite barely using my phone. I told the woman not to be rude and reminded her that she was the one who crossed the line by invading my personal space and touching me without my consent, twice. She had nothing to say in response, probably expecting me to apologize, but instead of diffusing the situation, her husband jumped in and told my mother, who was sitting next to me, to “educate me,” then acted shocked when I told him I was an adult. As we returned to our seats after the break, a staff member from Amare, who was also an elderly woman, approached me and condescendingly asked, “Do you understand me?” before lecturing me about phone use, clearly tipped off by this couple. I pointed out that multiple people were openly filming the concert, even with flash, yet I was singled out for a private message sent discreetly. I left feeling disrespected because of the unfair treatment. It felt like staff blindly sided with an aggressive elderly couple simply because of their age. If you’re a younger person attending a performance here, be careful who you sit next to, and don’t expect support if you’re harassed by old people. Great concert, but terrible handling of audience interactions. One star for the experience.

Finally I visited Amare for NDT! The space is very welcoming for the public and has a pluridisciplinary program. And it's only a few minutes' walk from the train station, very practical! There's a Mercure hotel next to it, as well as an animated shopping district and the Chinatown. I will definitely come back!

The Filmhuis in The Hague is a beautiful and well-maintained cinema — the atmosphere is calm, the location is central, and the venue itself has a lot of character. Unfortunately, the movie selection so far in 2025 has been a major disappointment. Very few films this year have truly felt worth going to see. Even when iconic director David Lynch passed away, Filmhuis only featured his work for a very brief time. In contrast, Kino in Rotterdam continued screening his films for weeks — nearly until now. It’s that kind of programming depth and respect for cinema that Filmhuis currently lacks. What I miss most is diversity — not only in genres, but in the type of films and voices being shown. Filmhuis increasingly feels like it caters to a small group of older, local regulars with very specific tastes. Meanwhile, places like Kino in Rotterdam offered a much broader and more inclusive range of films. When I lived there, I was at Kino two or three times a week without ever running out of interesting choices. I'm really hoping this is just a temporary slump, and that Filmhuis will soon broaden its horizon. But as it stands now, I'm seriously considering giving up my Cineville card and just watching films at home. Cinema is supposed to be an experience — not just in the setting, but in the stories being told. Right now, Filmhuis is missing that spark.

I like the vibes of this place. besides the screenings always going smoothly, I also really like just sitting around talking with people and friends in Filmhuis cafe. Big recommend for students on Wednesdays as the tickets are 5€.

Very cozy, nice wine and polite staff

What I like about filmhuis is the diversity in their offering. The counterpart to this is the break in the middle of the movie and relatively limited choice in times when movies can be played. I guess it's a trade-off and you've got to prioritise. Love their hot-cocoa 😊☕

The place is really good, the zaal was very comfortable. But there's no popcorn for you to buy 😢

Lovely cinema with comfortable chairs, some screenings have way too little seats in my opinion though.

Nice music playing and it’s a good place to grab a cup of coffee and have a conversation with another for a couple of hours. I primarily sat in the dining and café area but it is also a movie house where you can get wine and many edible accoutrements. It has Wi-Fi and a very nice romantic setting in the evening as well. Definitely a signature of the aesthetics found in many cafés and interior buildings in the Hague. Relatively chic.

Strand Kijkduin is a long, wide sandy beach very close to The Hague, perfect for a relaxed day by the sea. On sunny days it gets busy, but there’s still lots of space to enjoy the sand and water. It’s a fun place to meet friends, go for a walk, or just unwind. The many restaurants and cafés along the promenade add to the atmosphere and make it easy to spend a whole day here.

A Serene Oasis with a Few Surprises! Strand Kijkduin is an absolute treasure along the Netherlands' coastline. It offered a unique and refreshing experience that exceeded my expectations in many ways. The spaciousness of this beach, combined with low crowd density, creates an atmosphere of pure serenity. If you're seeking peace and tranquility, you'll find it here. One standout feature of Strand Kijkduin is the abundance of restaurants and bars that line the shore. Whether you're craving Dutch delights or international cuisine, there's something to please every palate. The quality of the food is impressive, and dining with a view of the sea is an unforgettable experience. I must admit that, as a Mediterranean person, I had different expectations for the sea. While it might not have the vibrant blue waters I'm used to, it still provides a pleasant and refreshing dip on a warm day. The availability of a nearby supermarket is a huge convenience. It's perfect for stocking up on essentials and snacks without the need to venture far from the beach. Now, let's talk about those sunbeds and umbrellas. While they do come with a price tag (10 euros for sunbeds and 7 euros for umbrellas), the comfort and shade they offer are well worth it. It's a small indulgence that enhances the overall beach experience. One small caveat is the parking situation. While there is a free car parking spot nearby, finding an empty space can be a bit of a challenge. Be prepared for a hunt or consider alternative transportation options. In conclusion, Strand Kijkduin is a hidden gem that I highly recommend. It offers tranquility, fantastic dining options, and the convenience of a nearby supermarket. Despite my initial reservations about the sea, the overall experience deserves a solid five out of five stars. It's a beach that has something for everyone to enjoy!

Wide and long sandy beach with good seashore. Family friendly. Clean. Standard grocery store nearby so very convenient to get a snack or drink. Parking is very expensive but that's the price for comfort

I prefer this place less disturbing by others, safer and most local people. Also the place is much cleaner then Schevengen beach . Also its free. There is a free shower but a payment option for the toilets

So much better than Scheveningen. The beach is quiet, calm and cleaner! The vibes are also amazing! And the dunes are worth the visit

Loved the beach. Comparing to Scheveningen this beach was really calm and quiet.

This beach is much better than the one directly west of The Hague—definitely worth the extra drive. Free parking was a big plus, too. Clean, fine sand and lots of seashells made for a beautiful experience. The reason I’m deducting one star is the slightly unsettling feeling: there was a noticeable police presence, including officers in riot gear. There's a reason for it, surely.

This was an unexpected gem for our day trip to The Hague, we were expecting a museum but found a delightful bar in an authentic setting. The staff are incredibly helpful (and funny), the food is very good but the star of the experience is the drinks. We indulged in several flights and fully expect to be back soon. If you're coming to the city center you must come and enjoy this place. We went back again this year and the experience was as equally enjoyable as the first, except we were able to sit outside this time in the garden and it was an even more delightful experience.

A lovely former brewery that still bottles jenever. The facility has an amazing garden! The host do an amazing story about the history of Jenever, the difference between old and new Jenever, the difference between jenever and gin and why it isn't allowed to brew in the city...

Cool spot in the middle of town. Small area inside and a garden in the back. Lots of relics from a different time. Delicious spirits!

What an absolutely fantastic experience. We had booked a tasting session—just a nice little visit to The Hague to knock back some liqueurs and have a cozy chat. It was supposed to last about two hours. But, thanks to our delightful hostess Fleur, we stumbled out four and a half hours later, slightly tipsy and definitely more enlightened. If you ever find yourself in The Hague, this is an absolute must-do. Just visit vankleef.eu—you’ll thank me when you sober up.

Wonderful distillery. The staff were so friendly and knowledgeable. An amazing range of beverages. Wholeheartedly recommended. If you go at the weekend, it's probably best booking in advance.

A huge part of what makes this place special are the people that work here, from the kitchen staff to the bar, everyone is wonderful! They were more than accommodating, and made us feel welcomed and included with the tasting experience even though we naively walked-in last minute without reservations (reservations ARE required for the guided tasting/tour, which we learned after the fact). The staff were nice and allowed us to join mid-tasting in our very spontaneous visit, which turned into one of my favorite tasting experiences…ever. The bar bites are delicious and pair well with the liqueur. Make sure to get the spicy pepper concoction! Note to self: make reservations to get the full tour next time!

Employee was very friendly and helpful. When you enter it looks small but once you go outside to the seating area it's spacious and beautiful. Love the outdoor seating. Very relaxing. Lots of history to learn as well.

recently visited den haag 🏖️ , and it was absolutely breathtaking! The pristine white sand, crystal-clear waters, and serene atmosphere make it the perfect getaway. Whether you’re looking to relax under the sun, take a refreshing dip, or enjoy a peaceful walk along the shore, this beach has it all. The views, especially at sunset, are nothing short of magical. The area is also well-maintained, with clean facilities and plenty of spots to set up for the day. I highly recommend [Beach Name] to anyone looking for a tranquil and unforgettable beach experience. Can’t wait to return!

A really nice place for a long walk and nice setting to sit and watch the sun set and boats moving around. A very quiet cove which is conducive to swimming.

Wide beaches with white sand and small shells. Surf is “just okay” for surfing. Lots of restaurants, music on the beach walk. Watch out for the jelly fish. 👣

Was here for The Beach Throwdown Crossfit event Best event in The Netherlands for Crossfitters Great atmopshere, well organised Go there next year!!!!

This refers to the sensation of mental, bodily, and social health for both young and old people. The sensation of well-being begins with a small flame within you. The beach is a great setting, and nature has the ability to inspire. We are delighted to use that power to ignite that flame. Get moving in a fun way with your friends or watch an inspiring event. Children, teenagers, adults, athletes, businesses, retirees, and vulnerable populations. Beach stadium is a vast well-being playground for a diverse audience. Exercising on the sand or near the sea provides a sense of freedom and pure vitality.

Proud of this stadium. Every year it is coming home for and with beach soccer. A stadium with European allure. Many beach sports possible. There is also catering.

Gorgeous view with windy weather! Always beautiful 🤩. It was cold so didn’t stay long so came early and went early, amazing restaurants with delicious food around, we had Pizza and drinks 🍺!

I live about 16 minutes away from Monster Beach, and it truly feels like my own little escape by the sea. It’s the perfect place to take a break from the daily rush and just breathe. The beach is always clean and well-maintained. In summer, there’s a relaxed and welcoming vibe, with just the right number of beach cafés to grab a great coffee, enjoy lunch, or sip on something refreshing after a walk along the shore. My favorite time of day? Sunset. It’s absolutely magical here. I often bring my camera to capture the view—no two sunsets are ever the same, and each one feels special. Parking is conveniently close, which is great for spontaneous visits. Paid parking applies in summer, but it’s totally worth it. You’ll also find restrooms and outdoor showers, making it an easy and comfortable spot for a beach day.

Beautiful, wide beach, not so crowded. Indistrial view to one side / Sheveningen pier on the other. Great with kids lovely for adults - easy to reach by bicycle 😀

Monster Beach is a peaceful and scenic spot to enjoy the Dutch coastline. The sand is clean, the water is nice for a swim, and the surroundings are well-maintained. It’s perfect for a relaxing day out, a picnic, or a walk along the shore. There are a few cafés and beach facilities nearby, though it can get a bit busy during sunny weekends. Overall, it’s a charming beach that’s worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Yes, what can i say, its a beach with sand and salt water. Its a clean beach. One of the more relaxed beaches in the area. Has some beach clubs and free parking.

A very large beach, with a beautiful view, there is also a restaurant on the beach.

A beautiful beach with a long stretch of kilometers to walk, jog or just lay around. So plenty of space.

Cclean, quiet, beautiful🥰😍😌😇👌🏻
