The Viktualienmarkt developed from an original farmers' market to a popular market for gourmets.

Thus, the "green market" had its own place, which was also named "market place" fo ...

Outside the Netherlands, the word ''grachten'' mostly refers to the city canals of Amsterdam (for which it is well known) and also Utrecht, Leiden and The Hague. The Koninginnegracht in The Hague was conceived by King Willem I for the promotion of tourism in the early 19th century. Since 2009 the Willemsvaart once more offers tours over this ''gracht'', to Scheveningen, known as "StrandRelax" or "BeachRelax", a unique stretch of sand between The Hague and the sea.
