It’s a pity that most visitors tour do not visit the Hague once touring through The Netherlands. The Hague- is the capital of the province of South Holland and the residence of the royal court and the Dutch Government. The Peace Palace, the International Tribunal, all the embassies, consulates, ministries and various international organizations are located in The Hague. The Hague in its own right is called the city of “peace and international justice”. If Amsterdam is the capital and heart of the Netherlands, The Hague can be considered to be the head of the Netherlands. All important foreign and internal politic decisions are made exactly here!
The Hague, as well as Amsterdam, has a long history. Amsterdam became the capital city of The Netherlands only under the rule of Napoleon; just before Amsterdam, for a period of 400 years, The Hague had been the capital of the United Provinces of the Netherlands. The oldest archaeological remains have been found here near the Binnenhof and date back to 3000 BC. The modern Hague vigorously began to develop in 1230, when the Count of Holland Wilem II ordered to build a castle on Binnenhof. We will pass by many historical sites that are countless in The Hague. We will see beautiful old monuments which are well preserved up to this day and are protected by the state. And surely the Count’s Pond, Knight’s Castle, Prison Port and Binnenhof that are in the list of world heritage and protected by UNESCO. You will discover the city of diplomats and ambassadors. After our tour you will be able to proudly state that: “Yes, I’ve been to The Hague, I’ve seen it and now I know it!”.
Cost of the tour is AZN 250.
