What to do in The Hague? Agenda today and this weekend

Walk past the Binnenhof and the Ridderzaal to the Mauritshuis on the Hofvijver. Then go to the Lange Voorhout for Escher in The Palace, and in the afternoon take the tram to the pier in Scheveningen. In the evening there is a concert in PAARD or Amare, or a drink on the Grote Markt.

Go indoors: the Mauritshuis, the Kunstmuseum Den Haag, Escher in The Palace, the Panorama Mesdag or the Filmhuis. The rainy-day page lists what is indoors, with what is on there next.

The Grote Markt is the middle of it: a former market square surrounded by bars and clubs, close to the pop venue PAARD. On the Plein some restaurants turn into dance clubs at night, and on the boulevard in Scheveningen there are clubs by the sea. Every night has its own page with what is on.

Start at the Binnenhof and the Hofvijver, walk along the Lange Voorhout and stroll on the boulevard in Scheveningen: all free. The Paardcafé has some free nights, and the parks, such as Clingendael and Westbroekpark, cost nothing either.

Try the Wonder Rooms of the Kunstmuseum Den Haag, where kids follow an adventure game through thirteen rooms, Escher in The Palace with its optical illusions, or the Children's Book Museum. In good weather there are the playgrounds of Clingendael and Westbroekpark.
