Lange Voorhout
A tree-lined avenue north of the Binnenhof, flanked by 18th-century mansions and embassies. In summer, it hosts an antiques market and outdoor sculpture exhibitions.
Lange Voorhout is The Hague's most elegant tree-lined avenue. Forming an L-shape around a lawn of linden trees, it is flanked by 18th-century noble residences, embassies, the luxury Hotel Des Indes, and Escher in The Palace. In spring, the lawn is covered in crocuses. From May to September, antiques and second-hand book markets are held on Thursdays and Sundays, and outdoor sculpture exhibitions are often staged in summer. It is also photogenic in autumn when the leaves fall. Entry is free, and it is ideal for a stroll between the Mauritshuis and Escher in The Palace.
