The Hague, the third largest city in the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the capital of South Holland Province, is the political, commercial, financial and international conference center of the Netherlands. Although the capital of the Netherlands is Amsterdam, The Hague is actually the seat of the Dutch Central Government Parliament and the Supreme Court, and most government agencies and foreign embassies are located here. The Hague is the location of the royal palace, and the Dutch king lives and works in The Hague. The official residence of the Dutch royal family is also here, so The Hague is the "Royal City" of the Netherlands.
