City centre of The Hague
The ‘Noordeinde’ Palace and ‘binnenhof’ are well known to locals, though the city centre has much more to offer. From small, cute boutique shops to the best restaurants, a diverse offering of museums, and strong cultural foundation. The different streets and squares each have their own atmosphere and background. For the expat with a job in one of the surrounding cities, who has to commute daily, the city centre is still a great place to live. Many large companies are also located in and around the city centre.

This area of The Hague is also called the ‘inventors district’. This is due to the many streets that are named in honour of inventors and scientists that are connected to these streets.
