And here is a close up:

It has been looking pretty festive in the city centre these last few weeks!

All lit up (Or: Holiday lights by ‘t Goude Hooft)

There is now a Christmas tree by ‘t Goude hooft (the oldest inn in The Hague).

Of course, there’s so much light in this area that it is difficult to see the decorations on the hotel itself, but it is the building on the right where it says “bites to go”. The last part is an automat (English Wikipedia) to purchase food at any hour of the day. I haven’t checked in a while to see if it still has food in it, though.

On the right is the clothing store The Sting. The building is nicknamed either “the cookie jar” or the “candy jar”. If you don’t believe me, check out the Dutch Wikipedia page.

2015 holiday decorations in The Hague (Or: ‘t Goude Hooft)

Earlier in the month I was walking around the Grote Kerk area in The Hague when I came across holiday decorations at one of The Hague’s more popular restaurants, ‘t Goude Hooft. (Full disclosure: I’ve never been to this restaurant. I only know it as the restaurant where all of the outside seats face outwards, to view the trams and people walking past. It’s slightly eerie.)

You know you’re in The Hague (or the Netherlands in general) when you have advertisements at the bottom of the photo imploring bicyclists keep the entrance to buildings free/accessible. It is quite crowded in that area.
