Haga - Capitala judiciara a lumii

Daca treceti prin Olanda, nu va limitati doar la Amsterdam.
Daca Amsterdamul este capitala de drept a Olandei, Haga este "capitala judiciara a lumii". Este al treilea oras ca marime dupa Amsterdam si Rotterdam. Aici se afla toate ambasadele si toate ministerele.
In Haga se afla cateva organizatii internationale precum Tribunalul Penal International pentru fosta Igoslavie, Curtea Penala Internationala si Curtea de Justitie Internationala, toate asociate cu Natiunile Unite.

Cu multe atractii turistice: castele, catredale, muzee, stradute inguste si frumoase, Haga mi s-a parut un oras curat si linistit.

Insa pe langa cladirile medievale, Haga este renumita si pentru arhitectura moderna, pentru cladirile inalte ciudate si colorate.

O zi frumoasa merita sa fie petrecuta in statiunea Scheveningen de pe plaja care este una dintre cele mai elegante statiuni din Olanda avand o faleza si un cazino.

http://wikitravel.org/en/Scheveningen : This sea-side resort was originally an independent fishing village, but soon came to be part of greater city of The Hague. Its inhabitants still maintain a sense of local identity, however. The area is divided into three parts: Haven is the seaport where fishers' boats still come in. It is not particularly picturesque like some French or Spanish fishing harbors, but some good fish shops and restaurants are available. Dorp is the former fishermen's village itself. The last part, Bad (meaning bath, not bad) is the beach resort that most visitors head for. The resort has a history of long royal and well-to-do visitors, but its 19th century grandeur has largely disappeared now due to unfortunate property development in the seventies. The area gets very crowded in summer. For large-scale nightlife, most city dwellers prefer Scheveningen to the center of town.

Scheveningen is divided into two districts; Noorderstrand (Northern Beach) and Zuiderstrand (Southern Beach). The northern beach area is the most famous and is most touristic. The souther beach is more urban and there is usually less to do, but it may be less crowded on sunny days
