The wishing tree at the entrance of the Peace Palace has a Japanese style and is very close to the concept of the International Court of Justice. It is a relatively political attraction. Perhaps only people of a certain age like me will come here.

Taking this bus to Keukenhof Park to see the flowers is extremely convenient; the boarding point was easily found by following the map. The park is so beautiful in spring! The blooming tulips 🌷 and various other flowers 🌼🌹 are dazzling and vibrant in the sunlight; one day isn't enough to see them all! 🥰

The sky was clear and blue, with white clouds floating in the sky. The water was calm, reflecting the water like a mirror. The fountain in the distance was dancing silently, and everything was so quiet.

During the few days in The Hague, I stayed by the beach and came to walk on the sea from time to time to watch the sunset. It was very beautiful to watch the sun set slowly. There were not many people at night in June, so it was especially suitable for couples to take a walk together.

The Hague Square is located in the city center, not far from the Central Station, and it takes less than 10 minutes to walk there. The square is not big, but the Parliament Building and the Knight Building are nearby, so you can start from the square and then go to other attractions.

At the Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands, I was on the scene in Rembrandt's prime time, witnessed the open restoration of "The Night Watch," encountered Vermeer, and came across exquisite Delftware. I was deeply moved by the art of the Dutch Golden Age.
