Your love for this fascinating place is evident in your descriptions and it’s easy to see why.

The history is amazing to contemplate, going back thousands of centuries! I’m always fascinated by the cities, towns and villages you write about but The Hague is in a league of its own, the city of Peace and Justice.

Thank you for this lovely tour and the stunning photos.

I’m highly in favor of some making a personal appearance there.

No need to name names. . .

Thank you very much Alex for this interesting article on The Hague!

I visited this city (few years ago) and I have good memories of it (the weather was nice ✨😉...).

I remember the Musée Mauritshuis (👍) and having been to « Le Parc des Dunes… »

Your precisions give the opportunity to understand and "see" this city differently ! …

and makes me want to go back!

🙋‍♀️🙌 🇳🇱🌷

Manhole covers and door handles/pulls around the world are fascinating stories within themselves. Enjoy your weekend!

If you go, don't miss the Panorama Mesdag and the Mauritshuis. And nearby Delft (just a 10-15 minute tram-ride away)

Great thanks! And I'm totally having coffee with Ricardo - he doesn't know it yet, though ;-)
