Scheveningen

Scheveningen has been a well-known tourist destination for more than a century. At the turn of the last century, people from far and away would travel to the sea for health reasons and cures. The Kurhaus, or 'cure house', now a splendid hotel, still bears witness to this period in time. Over the last few years Scheveningen has undergone extensive renovations, including the development of new facilities along the promenade, a casino, a theater, a mega-cinema, a Pier and indoor shopping center. Scheveningen boasts excellent accessibility and is only 10 minutes away from The Hague, the museums and the miniature village of Madurodam. Scheveningen's harbor features the Harbor Museum and a plentitude of excellent restaurants. For a carefully selected international collection of sculptures, visit the Beelden aan Zee Museum. The peace and quiet of this museum is truly enjoyable and the works of art are in perfect harmony with their surroundings.
