The Hague is excellent for international and local shopping. Most shops are in the semi-pedestrianized Binnenstad immediately west of the Hofvijver lake, bordered south by Grote marktstraat and west by Jan Hendrikstraat/Toren-Straat. Ask the tourist office for their credit-card sized fold out map of the Binnenstadt or visit the excellent website,
www.puurdenhaag.com, with links to all leading shops.
At the heart of the Binnenstadt, Haagsche Bluf is a charming square of classy shops occupying genuinely old and re-created
historic premises. Running north, Prinsestraat is known for its designer outlets and, parallel, Noordeinde is one of the city’s best shopping (and eating) streets with many art galleries.
Another charming street running north with excellent shops is Denneweg, renowned for its antique outlets. De Passage, just off Hofweg, is a beautiful 115-year old glass-covered arcade with upmarket stores.
For those world-famous blue-and-white Dutch ceramics, make the short journey to Delft to buy at source from the
Royal Delft Porcelain Factory, Rotterdamseweg 96. They also offer factory tours.
