If you are looking to get some quality, international shopping done, but still want to experience the history of the Netherlands, Denneweg in The Hague is for you. It is one of the oldest roads still around in The Hague. The street is surrounded by the history of the area. The buildings which line the street are both modern and historic, dating back to the 18th century. You enter the shops from the street itself, giving the main street a small town feel. There are also canals nearby that enhance the beauty of the street. The atmosphere is one of worldliness combined with the quality of the past.

Besides shopping, there are many places to stop and enjoy a meal in Denneweg. There is one restaurant, Lodewieck, that is booked every single day for lunch and has been for the past seventeen years. One can just imagine the delicious food they must serve to draw that type of crowd daily. Other eateries range from casual to very formal, depending what you are looking to enjoy.

Even though it's steeped with history and such, the Denneweg is considered a trendy and international area, too. Every week, in the center of the city, there is a book and antique market that attracts many visitors. Seeing such a market would be remarkable. One of the reappearing claims from visitors is that the Denneweg is very clean and safe, open from early morning until late evening. This allows for many opportunities for everyone to enjoy its charms.
