Description
Looking towards the old town (Den Haag)
The Hague never had walls around it, it was an open place, only circled by defensive Canals.
Cross the bridges and you are in the old center.
Inhabitants (male and female) born within these canals (made between 1590-1619 AD) are called a Hagenees, those born outside the canals (or even on the bridges :D) are called a Hagenaar.

Un endroit intéressant d'aller visité. Bravo pour la capture.
Really nice capture of your beloved city Chris, and I enjoyed the bit of history you provided also.
Nice capture ! looks like very little traffic !
Very cool picture and extremely interesting history BTW thanks for the info on the canals
excellent
what are you??? Hagenees, hagenaar??? When you get really old... super old, you can just call your wife (if you're married when you're old, old, old) a HAG and you won't even need to know where she was born and you'll get it right - lol
Superb!!!
Great lighting- thanks for sharing! :-)
