Town Hall in Spui

Between The Hague Central Station and the Centrum is this large white building (actually two buildings) which houses the civil servants of The Hague.

The amazing thing about the building is it got a huge and transparent atrium laid down between the two buildings. Above the two buildings are connected by an array of walkways. It is another good example of modern and beautiful architecture which if you think about it – is it worth spending money just for that?

Next to the Town Hall is the square called Spuiplein which has a unique water fountain - the water sprays directly from the paving bricks giving a bit of fun for people crossing the square.
