00:00Anyway, one of the many dream destinations, the Netherlands.
00:05There are so many places you can visit there.
00:07It offers a lot.
00:09That's right, just like what we hear nowadays, The Hague.
00:14Not only is it considered the international city of peace and justice,
00:18there are also many places to visit that you can enjoy.
00:21I bet, I love the Netherlands.
00:22And this morning, we'll be visiting the Hague with our QH Tourist Star in the Netherlands.
00:27Let's watch this.
00:30Welcome to The Hague, the political heart of the Netherlands.
00:35Good day, Kapuso. I am Walter Labajo, your UH Tourist Star.
00:40And welcome to The Hague, the political heart of the Netherlands.
00:48I am a licensed instructor here in the Netherlands.
00:51And I've been living here for almost 10 years with my Filipino husband.
01:01How far is the Netherlands from the Philippines?
01:0410,600 kilometers is the distance between the two.
01:09It's quite far, right?
01:11And if you take a plane, the travel time is 14 to 18 hours.
01:17Wow, that's a long time.
01:20But it's worth it because you'll experience the beautiful canals,
01:25the colorful tulips,
01:27the art that is popular all over the world,
01:29and the rich history of the Netherlands.
01:34From Amsterdam, almost an hour by train, you can reach The Hague.
01:42I'm excited to tour you in this city. Let's go!
01:48First stop is the currently trending International Criminal Court or ICC.
01:53This is where war crimes, genocide, and crimes against humanity are prosecuted.
02:05The Hague is also called the City of Peace and Justice.
02:09That's why our tour is not complete if we don't visit the Peace Palace.
02:16In the Peace Palace, there are two judicial institutions.
02:19The International Court of Justice and the Permanent Court of Arbitration.
02:24Do you still remember our historic victory against China
02:28when we fought for our sovereign rights in the West Philippine Sea?
02:33The one who decided that is none other than the Permanent Court of Arbitration.
02:39This is Binnenhof, a complex of buildings located in the center of The Hague.
02:45This is the home of the Dutch Parliament, where the First and Second Houses of the Parliament are located.
02:52Binnenhof is one of the oldest parliamentary buildings in the world that is still in use today.
03:00Let's take a break from political talk.
03:03Unwind and relax by the beach.
03:06The main major city in the Netherlands that can be found by the sea is The Hague.
03:12And the district of The Hague, which is close to the sea, is called Scheveningen.
03:18The beach of Scheveningen is long and beautiful, perfect for swimming, surfing, and chilling.
03:25Aside from the beach, it also has a pier with a ferris wheel, bungee jumping, and an overlooking view of the sea.
03:33There is also the Courthouse, a historic hotel, and restaurants and snack bars.
03:39In the snack bars, you can buy Kibbeling.
03:43This is Kibbeling, the Dutch version of fish nuggets.
03:46It is usually made from cod or beef, and served with mayonnaise or remoulade sauce.
03:55We are now here at Fanskijk, a stroopwafel bakery.
03:59Another well-known food here is the stroopwafel.
04:04The stroopwafel is a traditional Dutch treat made from two thin and crispy waffle-like cookies.
04:13I asked him earlier what is the best way to enjoy stroopwafel.
04:18He said that if you have hot coffee or hot tea, get a piece of stroopwafel, put it on top,
04:25and let the heat or warmth of your drink melt in the stroopwafel.
04:33Mmm! Delicious!
04:36That's what the Dutch say when the food is delicious.
04:40But of course, the Filipino food is not finished yet because it has already arrived here in the Netherlands.
04:52In the city center, you can find the oldest covered shopping center here in the Netherlands.
04:57This is called Passage.
05:00It is called an architectural gem because of its glass roof, intricate ironwork, and floor tiles.
05:06Passage is not just a shopping destination,
05:09it is also a landmark that shows the rich history of The Hague.
05:18I hope you enjoyed our visits, you were satisfied with our food,
05:23you gained knowledge, and you were inspired to visit The Hague.
05:28I am Walter Labajo, your UH Tourist Star here in the Netherlands.
05:33Tot ziens!
