The Hague (Dutch: Den Haag) is the seat of government of the Netherlands. However, Amsterdam is the official capital city.

The Hague is a quiet conservative city, compared to the hedonistic excesses of Amsterdam and Rotterdam.

Notable buildings in The Hague are:

  • The Peace Palace (donated by Andrew Carnegie)
  • The International Court for Criminal Justice
  • Hollandspoor Station (a model for Tokyo Central station)
  • The European Patent Office
