The Dutch city of The Hague lies right on the coast of the North Sea and is not only the seat of government but also where King Willem-Alexander and his family reside. Originally, the city was home to a hunting lodge of the Counts of Holland, and it owes its official name – 's-Gravenhage, or Counts’ private enclosure – to this fact. Today, The Hague is known primarily as the headquarters of important international institutions, such as Europol and the International Court of Justice. But the city is not just important – it’s also downright beautiful, which you can see for yourself on your motorcycling holiday. Pick up your dream bike from BMW Motorrad from our Rent A Ride rental partner and set off on a sightseeing tour of The Hague. The historical Binnenhof complex, around which the city grew, is a real must-see. There, you can take in the First and Second Chambers of the Dutch Parliament, and the venerable Ridderzaal building. Europe’s largest open-air market, The Hague Market, is also worth a little detour on your city travels.
