National Treasure

This is the Mauritshuis, located next door to the House of Parliament in The Hague. The building, formerly a 17th-century palace, is now a museum. After 200 years it now has a vast collection of some 800 of the best Dutch paintings, estimated to value between 1 to 2 billion Euros.

The other “must visit” museum is the van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. You must know who van Gogh is – the guy who drew the famous sunflowers painting that sold for nearly US$50 million in 80's, a record at that time. You can see that painting amongst many of his other works in that museum. For the rest, there is something like over 40 museums in the whole of Holland!
