Het Plein, South Holland Province, The Netherlands
4.0 (294 reviews) Spent Ranking #16 in The Hague Points of Interest & Landmarks
CENTER SPOT OF THE HAGUE
The Square, Het Plein, is the just right spot in the center of The Hague. It is a meeting place, trendy, historical, political, cozy, busy, delicious, coolest view, in short it is just party time! Yes, it is also "see or be seen". Can even be conceited and somewhat ingenious, though that is the fun here. Just sit down and enjoy the show. And in the meantime have a wonderful time enjoying a cup of coffee, a savory or sweet snack, a lunch, and of course a look at! And know just around the corner are the historical buildings, department stores, boutiques and all young and old need to visit.

Great area with a fantastic bar scene
Found this area by chance and went back on a couple of other occasions mainly due to the wide range of bars and restaurants. If you are ever in The Hague it is worth a visit.

Busy square
Most stunning is the contrast between the historical, quaint buildings located on the Plein and the modern skyscrapers towering behind. The square is lined with restaurants and bars, and is one of the most busy squares in Haag. In the middle of the square you'll see a towering statue of William of Orange (the Silent), made by the Dutch sculptor Lodewyk Royer. It was erected in 1848. Het Plein was originally a garden for the Binnenhof castle where they did grow vegetables for the court. It was constructed as a town square, Het Plein, in 1632.
