Must Visit in the Netherlands: Scheveningen, Hague, Netherlands
A little while ago, during the summer, I went a day to Scheveningen. Scheveningen is a district in the city The Hague which is located at the coastline of the Netherlands. I live in the east of the Netherlands, so for me it is more like a day trip to go to the west side of the country. When I spend a day at the beach it really feels like a sort of vacation to me. I can really enjoy a day like that. If you are travelling to the Netherlands, I can really recommend you to spend a day at Scheveningen. In this article I will tell you why.
The famous hotel ‘the Kurhaus’ and ‘the Pier’ are characteristics for Scheveningen. Both have been closed for a little while, but now they are open again. When you walk through the Pier, you will come across a lot of cosy eateries. At the end of the Pier you can go upstairs, where you will get a breath-taking view over Scheveningen. It is so pretty! Since a few months, they put down a ferris wheel at the end of the Pier. I have not been into the ferris wheel, but I have heard it must give a breath-taking view over Scheveningen and the sea as well.
During the ‘beach’ season (from the month March until October) the beach eateries are set up for the season so you can enjoy a nice meal or drink directly at the beach. Especially with nice weather those beach eateries have a cosy ambiance where you can enjoy a holiday feeling and have a great view over the sea. ......
