‘South Park’, as it is referred to by locals, was created in 1936 to offer The Hague inhabitants a place to convene and take part in recreational activities such as swimming, football and barbecuing.

This huge, time-honoured public space comprises an indoor swimming pool, fitness centre, restaurants, cafés, a deer enclosure and a football stadium where the local team plays.

"Viva la Fiesta!" has rang across the streets of Santa Fe for nearly 300 years. Every fall since 1712, people have gathered in Old Santa Fe to celebrate Don Diego De Vargas' peaceful reoccupation of the City of Holy Faith in 1692. The fiesta incorporates both local and Native American traditions, making it one of Santa Fe's most storied and treasured attractions.

This 13th-century Gothic cathedral, which peers straight over the Binnenhof is a standout landmark of The Hague. Although the original structure of the ‘Great Church’ is built from wood, the 2,200 square metre area that the church now takes up includes stone, marble and iron features as well as impressive touches such as intricate mechanistic clocks, detailed stained glass windows and 51 carillon bells, which were added over the years as the edifice grew in prominence. There are lots of events taking place in the Grote Kerk all year round, so it is worth checking the agenda on their website ahead of time to see what’s on.
