Together with the Haarlemmer Hout, the Haagsche Bos is the oldest woods in the country. In the Middle age, it used to be one of the favorite hunting grounds of the Counts of Holland. It is not so big anymore (500m wide by 3kms long), but it remains the green heart of the city. An what a sky! No clouds, when Holland is known for its very cloudy skies!!!

Why is it named Haarlemmer hout?
I love the sky so blue.
What a lovely view of both the old trees and the gorgeous sky!
