Guided tours of this notable sight are available for the visitors.
Shop in the biggest market in Europe when you shop at the Haagse Markt. Spread over a large area, this market was built in 1938 near the Prinsegracht, or the Prince Canal, and was later relocated to its present location in Den Haag. On a regular basis, it sees more than 40,000 people on weekdays, and on weekends this number exceeds 60,000. This is probably because the market is open only four days of the week, thus making it even more sought after and a 'must-see' spot. Though called a market, the Haagse Markt operates more like a shopping center, with several of the sellers or merchants building permanent booths on the premises. The Haagse Markt also is the venue for several of the area's cultural and business events. Do plan a visit here and witness the genius of engineering as well as the cultural aspect of Den Haag. Please see the website for further information.
