The Hague is a city on the black list of at the Cultural Heritage Foundation. During
the war the city was badly damaged (The Nazis thought D-day would start at the Dutch coast). After the war the city council for decades abused the city and tor down a lot of precious architecture. Where you see now the colourful building used to be the city council, the most ugly concrete building you ever have seen. But it was too much for most. So it was torn down a couple of years ago and this great building replaced it. It is called 'The Powder Box' it hosts clothing shops.
The interior is pretty impressive, shoping in style. And a picture from the inside on the spot where I took the picture.

This building is two year old? It is incredible, considering the ugly pieces of architecture we get nowadays. Really original!
