The places that make The Hague: Binnenhof and Ridderzaal, Peace Palace, Scheveningen Pier and more, with what is on there next.
The political heart of the Netherlands beside the Hofvijver, 800 years old. The Ridderzaal is the Hall of Knights with the turrets. The Binnenhof is being renovated, but you can walk or cycle through the grounds.
Opened in 1913. It houses the International Court of Justice, the Permanent Court of Arbitration and The Hague Academy of International Law. The grounds can only be visited on a guided tour.
The pier reaches out over the sea at Scheveningen. It has a Ferris wheel with a view of the beach and the skyline of The Hague, and restaurants, bars and terraces above the water.
A 17th-century palace on the Hofvijver, next to the Binnenhof, now a museum of Dutch and Flemish masters: Vermeer's Girl with a Pearl Earring, Rembrandt's Anatomy Lesson of Dr Nicolaes Tulp and Fabritius's The Goldfinch.
A miniature park that shows the Netherlands: landmarks such as the Cube Houses, container ships in the port of Rotterdam and the canals of Amsterdam, with attractions and a programme for every season. It is at the George Maduroplein.
The last building of the architect H.P. Berlage, opened in 1935, with a large collection of art and decorative arts. It is on the Stadhouderslaan, outside the centre.
The prints of M.C. Escher in the former winter palace of Queen Emma on the Lange Voorhout. It is open Tuesday to Sunday.
A 360-degree painting of Scheveningen as it looked in 1881, by H.W. Mesdag, in a building made for it on the Zeestraat. You stand on a platform with an artificial dune in front of the canvas.
