Binnenhof โ The Beating Heart of Dutch Politics ๐๐๏ธ

I visited the Binnenhof & Ridderzaal as part of the ProDemo English speaking tour. The Binnenhof is the complex of buildings used by the government of Netherlands. The entire Binnenhof complex isn't actually that big and very easily walkable. The courtyard has a wonderful fountain, the Fontein Graaf Willem II. The ceremonial Ridderzaal dates from the 13th century and all the restoration work is very sympathetic to the original design. Here you can also see the chair used by the King and Queen of Netherlands. The House of Senate is the standout building of Binnenhof with it's many fine paintings and murals. You can even see the understated offices of the Prime Minister of Netherlands. Amazing to see the inner workings of the Dutch government and place where governing happens.

The Inner Court (Binnenhof) is the oldest House of Parliament in the world still in use. It has been the location of meetings of the Dutch parliament, the Staten-Generaal, since 1446, and has been the centre of Dutch politics for many centuries. The Inner Court is studded with monumental old buildings testifying of eight centuries of governing in the Low Countries, but it also has several ample open spaces, all freely open to the public. One of the towers, simply known as het Torentje ('the Little Tower'; directly next to the Mauritshuis) has been the office of the Prime Minister of Holland since 1982. The Binnenhof is a must-see if you're in The Hague!

As one of the oldest Parliament Buildings in the world still in use, Binnenhof is home to the Office of the PM of the Netherlands and the meeting place of Government Bodies. Built in the 13th century with Gothic Style, it is looking very impressive and well-maintained. Listed among the top 100 Dutch Heritage sites, Binnenhof is a very popular tourist attraction. We visited this magnificent complex during a Day Tour from Amsterdam. Your visits are Highly Recommended

Het Binnenhof ( historische naam : Hof van Holland ) is een gebouwencomplex in het centrum van Den Haag , dat al eeuwenlang het middelpunt is van de Hollandse en Nederlandse politiek . De eerste die er zich vestigde was Graaf Floris IV van Holland in 1229 . Hier zetelen en vergaderen de Eerste en Tweede Kamer , de twee colleges die samen de Nederlandse volksvertegenwoordiging vormen , het parlement . Ook de Minister-President , voorzitter van de ministerraad en officiele vertegenwoordiger van de Nederlandse Staat , houdt hier kantoor , in het '' torentje ''. Ten slotte is er een deel van de Raad van State gevestigd , te weten de afdeling die als openbare taak heeft om regering en parlement onafhankelijk te adviseren over wetgeving en bestuur. Vanuit het Binnenhof , in de ridderzaal , leest ieder jaar Koning Willem - Alexander de troonrede voor tijdens Prinsjesdag. LET OP: Het Binnenhof wordt sinds 2021 tot zeker 2026 grondig gerenoveerd . U kunt ( wat men op internet ook beweert ) niets bezichtigen of zien , buiten het gebouw zelf ( alles is hermetisch afgesloten met reuzegrote doeken en de werken zijn er stevig aan de gang )
