A new location for the International Criminal Court

The ICC is moving

In the month of December the ICC will be moving to its new premises at the Van Alkemadelaan, crossing Oude Waalsdorperweg. Impressive architecture embedded in the dunes of The Hague. 

Until now the ICC has been located at the Binckhorstlaan, closer to the old city centre of The Hague.
​Nonetheless, with bus 22 we have an excellent public transport connection to the new location. Get on the bus at bus stop Nieuwe Haven (the extension of the Amsterdamse Veerkade, right next to Spui) and exit at Oude Waalsdorperweg (a 20 minute bus ride). 


Last Thursday the president, Silvia Fernández de Gurmendi, received the keys of the new premises which will soon be the new office for the 1200+ people working for the ICC.

City trip: The Hague

11/11/2015

An increasingly popular tourist destination

Picture
The Hague is experiencing a steady rise in popularity as a city trip destination. New research has shown that The Hague is now the third most popular city in The Netherlands (after Maastricht and Amsterdam). Yesterday the AD (a Dutch newspaper) stated that The Hague has done exceedingly well as a tourist destination in 2015. Even though there was a 4% decrease in Dutch visitors, The Hague hosted a significantly increasing number of Germans, French, Belgians, Chinese, British and American visitors.

It is also quite remarkable that the municipality has decided earlier this week that it will no longer be marketing 'Scheveningen' but from now it will be 'The Hague Beach'.
Even though this has caused some local outrage, this seems to be the only natural and logical course of action since the Dutch word 'Scheveningen' is an impossible word to pronounce as a foreigner.  The Hague Beach, it is.
