Denneweg (Dune Road), Hague
Denneweg used to be Dune Road. It was a wandering road through the sand dunes to the beach. Now it is a finished, modern commercial street that wanders among the store fronts. In its development it became the go to street for antiques and ancillary items of the hospitality industry. Antiques have become vital to the Hague.
The Hague Antiques and Book Fair is held at the end of the street, on the Lange Voorout. Dune Road offers many specialty shops involved with sophisticated life styles, design, art and antiques. The Koffiebranderij, Betjeman en Barton, Cabinet and Heden, for example, offer coffee, tea, gifts, and cabinets. In Heden one may even borrow modern art.
Did we mention jewelers? Lets do that. There are Bode & Bode, Camp & Wismeyer, and Sieralex. These and more are worth visiting. Fashion is a burgeoning industry on the Dune Road. The boutiques are thriving. They have international brands and clothing from famed Dutch designers. You need a break? Ariane or Aveda can give you a facial & massage.
The Dune Road is easily accessible by car, bicycle or public transport. Paid parking is available in the area, and there are three garages: Interparking Museumkwartier, Malieveld and Parkstraat. From the Hague Central Station it's a short walk. By tram it is only one stop from Central Station. You may arrive by boat and moor in the Hooikade.
And bring the phone, wifi is free!
