Den Haag

A few months ago, I went to the Netherlands. I visited many different places, but one I particularly liked was The Hague (Den Haag). It is a very beautiful little city. 

1. The Royal Picture Gallery Mauritshuis (Maurice House) is a museum which has a large art collection, including paintings by Dutch painters such as Vermeer and Rembrandt. The most famous painting is Girl With a Pearl Earring.
2. Church
3. An old tramway.
4. A lovely and quiet park in The Hague.
5. The Hague train station, and all the bikes parked in front of it!
6. World Peace Flame monument, situated in front of the Peace Palace.
It's surrounded with stones from every country.
7. This is the Peace Palace, where the International Court of Justice is based.
