HofvijverThe Hofvijver lake is situated in front of the parliament building and the prime minister's office. You will learn about the significance of this place and some funny history.

Noordeinde PalaceYou will see the working palace of the Dutch king. Based on the flag, we can find out if he is currently in the country. Let's see!

Grote KerkWe will see the Grote Kerk ("Big Church") of The Hague. It is quite an uncommon tower. And what is that stork doing on top of it?
-
Statue of Johan de WittAnother statue. This is the only head of government in the world that has been eaten by an angry mob! That sounds a bit weird, but you'll find out what happened.
-
After the walking tour, our guide will take you inside the Mauritshuis. This classy building was built in the 17th century for the governor of Dutch Brazil. Now it is a world famous museum with a top selection of art from the Dutch Golden Age, including 3 Vermeers!
