Noordeinde Palace and the city’s concentration of government institutions make The Hague a useful counterpoint to Amsterdam. The International Court of Justice and International Criminal Court add a wider perspective: this is a city where Dutch political life sits alongside institutions concerned with disputes and crimes beyond the Netherlands.
What to look for
Noordeinde Palace is one of The Hague’s named royal landmarks.
The International Court of Justice and International Criminal Court are distinct institutions based in the city.
